Initial analysis

The building at 2729-2739 Bush Street is a three-story, 6-unit multi-family residential structure built in 1910, currently owned by Alice Lu and Carlos Enriquez. The property underwent significant improvements between 2010-2023, including a mandatory soft-story retrofit completed in 2018 at a cost of $75,000, installation of new electric vehicle charging stations in 2013, and comprehensive updates to all units' plumbing, electrical systems, and HVAC components. Recent major improvements in April 2023 included the installation of a new 2-stage furnace and tankless water heater.

The building has a history of housing maintenance issues and violations, particularly between 2000-2012, including problems with heating systems, plumbing, electrical components, and building structure. Multiple complaints were recorded between 2010-2012 regarding various maintenance issues such as bathroom mold, window functionality, and appliance problems. Notable incidents include a water heater installation without a proper flue in 2010 (subsequently corrected), routine inspection violations in 2011 regarding fire safety equipment, and a significant complaint in 2012 involving multiple issues including ventilation, electrical systems, and appliances. Recent improvements and the completion of the soft-story retrofit suggest substantial investment in building safety and habitability, though it's worth noting that during the building's recent history, all previously recorded violations have been marked as abated, with no active violations on record. The building's systems have been extensively upgraded, including complete electrical system replacements, plumbing updates, and the addition of modern HVAC systems, indicating a commitment to maintaining current safety standards.

Risk rating

How 2729-2739 Bush 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.
