Initial analysis

The property at 2833-2837 Sacramento Street is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1895 in Pacific Heights, containing three units and currently owned by Nathan Gonzalez and Apple Ali. The building has undergone significant renovations in recent years, with substantial work completed between 2017-2018 including bathroom and kitchen upgrades, lower level refinishing, structural work, and the removal of two chimney stacks. The most recent major renovation, completed in 2018, involved comprehensive updates to multiple bathrooms, heating system installation, and electrical rewiring of various areas. The building's infrastructure has been actively maintained, with records showing plumbing work including sewer line repairs and various fixture relocations between 2008-2018, and electrical updates to accommodate modern appliances and safety systems.

Historically, the building faced several building code violations in 2003 relating to plumbing, electrical systems, and fire safety issues, though these were all promptly addressed and abated by July 2003. The property underwent a condominium conversion process which was successfully completed, and recent improvements have focused on both aesthetic and functional upgrades, including facade matching improvements and interior reconfigurations. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to both preventive and corrective measures, with no recorded fire incidents other than a false alarm, and no active violations or complaints at present. The only recorded tenant buyout occurred in June 2017 for one tenant in the amount of $41,306.13. External to the building itself, there have been various neighborhood issues reported through 311 calls between 2018-2024, primarily relating to parking and street maintenance, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or management.

Risk rating

How 2833-2837 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 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 395 are predicted to be safer.
