Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 86-88 Manzanita Avenue, located in the Jordan Park/Laurel Heights neighborhood, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1950, currently owned by the Hoffmark Sofia Estate. The building has undergone several significant infrastructure improvements over the past two decades, with the most substantial work occurring in 2012 when comprehensive plumbing updates were completed, including a copper re-pipe and water service line installation. Earlier improvements include street space and sidewalk repairs in 2011, followed by a foundation replacement in 2003 which represented a major structural upgrade. The building's exterior maintenance history shows multiple attempts at window improvements, with a 1992 permit for installing five aluminum windows in the front bedroom, though this particular permit was ultimately cancelled.

The property has experienced recurring issues with graffiti on the mailbox, particularly between 2016 and 2022, with five documented incidents affecting the mail receptacle, three of which were classified as not offensive and two as offensive. All these incidents were handled through the US Postal Service Maintenance Queue system. The surrounding area has seen occasional street cleaning needs, with a documented loose garbage incident in September 2019 that was resolved through the Department of Public Works Operations. While the mailbox graffiti incidents represent a pattern of minor vandalism, they appear to be primarily surface-level issues affecting the mail receptacle rather than the building structure or systems themselves.

Risk rating

How 86-88 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.
