Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 1818-1822 Divisadero Street, owned by Divisadero Panda LLC, has undergone significant renovations and improvements since 2019, with the most substantial work including seismic retrofitting completed in September 2019 (cost $150,000) and a major interior remodel of the third floor in February 2020 (cost $200,000), which involved window replacement and maintained the laundromat use. More recent improvements include the installation of a new roof in 2021 (cost $12,000), the addition of a privacy partition wall and kitchenette in late 2022 (cost $10,000), and the installation of an awning sign for Atelier Yarns in October 2022 (cost $7,000). A notable roof deck and penthouse addition project was filed in November 2021, though the permit status remains as "Filed" as of October 2023.

The building experienced several maintenance and compliance issues in late 2018, including violations related to mold, lead paint concerns, and various interior surface problems, all of which were abated by January 4, 2019. There were also multiple vacant commercial storefront complaints filed between 2019 and 2023. The property underwent a tenant buyout for three units in March 2020, with a reported settlement amount of $130,000. Recent maintenance history shows regular upkeep, though there have been recurring issues with public cleanliness in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding garbage, debris, and toter placement. The most recent property-related complaint was filed in June 2023 regarding a vacant commercial storefront, though this case is currently listed as not active.

Risk rating

How 1818-1822 Divisadero 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 C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.
