Initial analysis

The property at 2728-2730 Sutter Street in Lower Pacific Heights is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by the Wilson Ann Revocable Trust. The building has experienced several significant structural and safety issues over the past decade, with the most critical incidents occurring in 2012-2013 when multiple complaints were filed regarding unauthorized unit configurations and potential safety hazards including emergency exit access, floor tilting, and staircase stability. In response to these concerns, a notable renovation occurred in 2014 involving the removal and reconstruction of an unsafe staircase at a cost of $25,000, though more recent permits indicate continued attention to street space maintenance. Previous maintenance history shows attention to basic upkeep, including roofing work in 1996 and staircase repairs in 1987, suggesting some level of ongoing property maintenance.

The building has had recurring maintenance issues documented through complaints and 311 calls, particularly during 2010-2013 when multiple reports were filed regarding electrical problems, mold, and pest issues, though these cases eventually reached "Not Active" status. More recently, there have been several 311 calls (2023-2024) primarily related to street cleaning and debris management in the vicinity of the property, with most cases being resolved by city services. While these more recent incidents do not directly indicate internal building issues, they suggest continued attention to exterior maintenance requirements around the property. The combination of historical complaints, structural work undertaken, and ongoing service calls suggests a building that has experienced significant challenges but has seen some improvements through recent renovations, particularly regarding safety features such as stair access.

Risk rating

How 2728-2730 Sutter 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, 241 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.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 74.7%
Moderate concern 18.5%
Severe concern 6.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
