Initial analysis

The property at 3953-3955 Sacramento Street is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1908 in Presidio Heights, containing three units and owned by Conner 2020 Tr. The building has undergone significant renovations, most notably in 2010 when a substantial $250,000 project was completed to fill in lightwells, relocate units, and remodel multiple bathrooms and kitchens throughout the building. The improvements included comprehensive updates to the building's infrastructure, with new plumbing systems installed for multiple kitchens and bathrooms, the addition of two new furnaces, ducting, and electrical rewiring of apartments. In 2016, a wall was installed to permanently separate two dwelling units, and seismic gas valves were added for safety.

The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including a significant garage renovation in 2010 with a new door installation and staircase modifications. Several 311 calls have been logged for the property, primarily regarding parking violations and tree maintenance issues, with multiple reports of driveway blocking between 2018-2023. Notably, there were plumbing issues reported in December 2015 involving a sewage backup and water leak that required attention. The property had one documented fire incident, which was recorded as a false alarm. Recent permits indicate ongoing attention to safety and infrastructure, with the installation of fire-rated walls to separate legal dwelling units. The building's location has experienced typical urban challenges such as parking enforcement issues, but overall, the property has maintained regular permit activity demonstrating active management and maintenance of the building's systems and structure.

Risk rating

How 3953-3955 Sacramento St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 181 buildings in this neighborhood, 74 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 74.7%
Moderate concern 16.2%
Severe concern 9.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
