Initial analysis

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 87-91 Manzanita Avenue in the Jordan Park/Laurel Heights neighborhood was constructed in 1949 and is currently owned by Manzanita Ave LLC. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, with the most recent major works focusing on energy efficiency and infrastructure upgrades. In 2018, twelve windows were replaced with more energy-efficient units (U-factor 0.30), and in 2017, both the electrical panel and water heater were upgraded. The building received a comprehensive renovation in 2011, including kitchen and bathroom remodeling in units 87 and 89, the installation of three new furnaces and ducts, and associated electrical upgrades. Earlier maintenance work includes reroofing projects completed in 1998 and 2014, totaling over $40,000 in improvements.

The property has a history of compliance issues that have been addressed through proper channels. In 2009, there was a violation regarding dryer ventilation that was subsequently corrected with appropriate permits and work completed at a cost of $800. A notable cluster of violations was recorded in 2004 related to fire safety, including emergency exiting, smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, and combustible storage under egress stairs; however, all these violations were promptly abated within approximately one month. The building's maintenance and improvements suggest active management, with no current open violations or complaints. The most recent maintenance records indicate regular attention to building systems and compliance with housing codes, with all identified issues being properly addressed through appropriate permits and inspections.

Risk rating

How 87-91 Manzanita Ave'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 272 buildings in this neighborhood, 201 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

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

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 65.2%
Moderate concern 25.7%
Severe concern 9.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
