Initial analysis

The Kaus Family Trust owns this two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 in San Francisco's Pacific Heights neighborhood. The property's historical records indicate a reroofing project completed in 1997, but no significant structural modifications appear in recent history. The building has undergone two notable proposed transformations that secured CEQA clearance: a conversion plan to transform the garage and ground floor into three commercial spaces while retaining a third-floor flat, alongside an associated variance for garage conversion into commercial spaces—though it's unclear if these modifications were actually executed.

Recent street-level incidents around the property (details visible in 311 calls) primarily relate to parking and sidewalk maintenance, though none directly indicate issues with the building's structural or residential systems. The most recent activity includes two parking meter damage reports from January 2025, three illegal parking incidents between 2021-2025, hazardous materials reporting in March 2021 that authorities were unable to locate, various instances of street cleaning needs in 2019-2020, and multiple reports of merchandise blocking the sidewalk between 2017-2018, all of which were resolved. The building's location appears to experience typical urban street-level maintenance challenges, but there are no recorded safety concerns or building-specific service requests in recent years that would impact resident safety or comfort within the structure itself.

Risk rating

How 3263-3265 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
78th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 212 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 age

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

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 74.3%
Moderate concern 14.3%
Severe concern 11.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
