Initial analysis

The property at 3009 Sacramento St is a 2-story multi-family residential building with three units, located in San Francisco's Pacific Heights neighborhood and built in 1904. The main building underwent several significant renovations in 2016, including major kitchen and bathroom remodels in units #1 (lower floor) and #3 (top floor), with associated plumbing and electrical work totaling approximately $68,000. The rear carriage house structure was formally recognized as a one-story single-family dwelling in 2019, following its previous use as an illegal studio unit conversion, and recent maintenance included skylight replacement in 2024. The property has experienced several maintenance issues, including water damage repairs in the garage (2019), rear deck and stairs repairs (2020), and a fresh air inlet issue that was promptly addressed in April 2019. Multiple unit-related improvements have been made, such as plumbing upgrades including tankless water heater installation (2021) and various kitchen and bathroom renovations across different units.

The building has a history of unauthorized modifications and illegal uses, particularly regarding the rear structure, with multiple complaints filed between 2006-2007 about suspected unauthorized occupancy and kitchen installation, though these issues were ultimately resolved through the 2019 legalization process. More recent building permits and maintenance records suggest active management and upkeep of the property, with no unresolved building violations or active complaints on record since 2019. The property has experienced typical urban maintenance issues as documented in 311 calls, primarily related to street cleaning and tree maintenance, which have been resolved through appropriate channels. Recent improvements focus on maintaining building systems and addressing weather-related issues, such as the 2024 skylight replacement project and previous water damage repairs.

Risk rating

How 3009 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

Model explanation

What's driving this score

Building age

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

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

Notices of Violation, owner's portfolio

DBI NOVs across all buildings this owner is registered on — a signal of systemic maintenance issues across the portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 85.9%
Moderate concern 11.7%
Severe concern 2.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
