Initial analysis

3049 Sacramento Street is a three-story, 10-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Pacific Heights neighborhood. Built in 1965 and currently owned by the Win Xi Trust Agreement, this apartment building has undergone several significant improvements to meet modern safety standards. Most notably, the building completed a soft-story retrofit in 2016 (Tier 3) and upgraded its fire safety systems, including a fire alarm system modernization in 2021 that incorporated sprinkler monitoring and compliance with current fire code requirements. The building has experienced two fire-related incidents, both involving equipment activation and with no reported injuries.

The property has maintained regular compliance with safety inspections, addressing violations promptly, including a 2019 sprinkler maintenance issue and emergency lighting repair. Recent improvement works include HVAC updates, with furnace replacements completed in 2016 for multiple units. Historical records show routine safety inspections were conducted in 1996, 2002, and 2013, with a plumbing permit for water service work issued in 2016. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to external matters such as garbage, debris, and parking issues, rather than building maintenance concerns. The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure, including reroofing projects completed in 1995 and 2004, though earlier permits from 1995 are now expired.

Risk rating

How 3049 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
27th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 703 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building age

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 49.3%
Moderate concern 39.3%
Severe concern 11.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
