Initial analysis

The 2729-2731 Pine Street property is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood, built in 1900 and currently owned by the Yvonne M Dickerson Revocable Trust. The building underwent significant renovations between 2019-2021, including major structural work on the rear facade, interior remodeling of all three levels, complete electrical rewiring of both units, and new HVAC systems installation. The most substantial work occurred in 2019, when approximately 12 feet of rear building at levels 2 and 3 was replaced to address age-related issues, along with the addition of a skylight, replacement of rear decks and stairs, and voluntary structural strengthening. The property had several plumbing and electrical upgrades during this period, including a complete plumbing system replacement with new fixtures and appliances.

The building has a history of maintenance issues, particularly leading up to 2019, with multiple violations documented in early 2018 regarding weatherproofing, paint conditions, and potential lead paint hazards, which were all officially abated by March 2019. There were also inspections regarding structural concerns, mold, pests, and earthquake compliance during this period, though these issues appear to have been addressed through the subsequent renovations. A complaint was filed in April 2020 about violation of health orders related to non-essential construction work, and a September 2018 complaint noted concerns about lead paint containment during siding demolition, though both complaints were marked as not active. The property has experienced recurring issues with parking enforcement, as evidenced by multiple citations for driveway blocking between 2018-2024, and there were three tree maintenance cases in 2018 that required attention.

Risk rating

How 2729-2731 Pine 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 670 buildings in this neighborhood, 20 are predicted to be safer.
