Initial analysis

The 2-unit multi-family residential building at 3533-3535 Sacramento Street in Presidio Heights, constructed in 1900, has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the last several years, with the most substantial work occurring between 2021-2023. A voluntary seismic upgrade in 2021 valued at $738,000 included interior remodeling, window replacements, and more. Subsequent work in 2022 involved dry rot repairs, installation of lap siding, and various plumbing updates including comprehensive bathroom, kitchen, and utility renovations. In late 2023, permits were issued for additional window replacements and the installation of two multi-zone HVAC systems serving different building levels. While there was one construction-related complaint in January 2023 regarding early morning work and weekend noise, this was resolved quickly. The building has a history of addressing infrastructure maintenance, including a 2011 sewer line replacement and a 1998 reroofing project.

Of particular note is a fire incident from 1997 (now over 25 years ago) involving side wall shingle damage, though there have been no subsequent fire-related incidents recorded. The property has experienced recurring issues with parking enforcement, with multiple citations issued for driveway blocking between 2023-2024, suggesting ongoing difficulties with street parking in the area. Two attempted conversions of the residential units to include medical office space in 2003 and 2005 were withdrawn and not pursued. The most recent building modifications appear to focus on modernization and safety upgrades, including electrical service improvements made in 2022 that upgraded the service from 200-400 amps to accommodate contemporary needs.

Risk rating

How 3533-3535 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.
