Initial analysis

The property at 33 Lupine Ave is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1950, currently owned by Christopher S Fowler 1994 R. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being the replacement of the sewer main line in 2012. Other notable improvements include the installation of six double-pane vinyl windows in 2006, electrical system modernization with the conversion from fuses to circuit breakers in 2009, and the repair and upgrade of various structural elements including wooden stairwells in 2003 and kitchen renovations in 1999. A concerning history of stair-related safety issues was documented in 2003, when violations were recorded regarding wood stairs requiring repairs, emergency exiting concerns, and the need for smoke detectors, though these violations were all abated by August 2003. Additional safety concerns were identified in 2008 regarding handrails for stairways that were subsequently addressed.

The building's maintenance record shows attention to both interior and exterior upkeep, including termite damage repairs in 1988, reroofing work (though records show this permit expired in 1991), and various window and balcony modifications. Recent external maintenance issues have been minimal, with the most recent 311 calls primarily relating to street cleaning and graffiti removal in 2021. The property's most significant recent maintenance challenges appear to have been resolved promptly, with all identified violations and complaints being addressed within reasonable timeframes. The building underwent routine housing inspections in 2003, 2008, and 2010, suggesting regular oversight by housing authorities, though the specific outcomes of these inspections beyond the noted violations are not detailed in the available records.

Risk rating

How 33 Lupine 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.

Neighborhood percentile
