Initial analysis

This two-unit multi-family residential building, located at 3124 Turk Blvd in the Lone Mountain neighborhood, is a two-story structure built in 1925 and currently owned by Hong Trust. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the years, with the most recent plumbing work completed in January 2023 involving the installation of proper cast iron waste and vent systems for the lower unit's washer machine discharge line. The building experienced notable issues in 2022-2023, including a series of plumbing-related complaints and violations in September 2022 regarding water intrusion, flooding, and plumbing repairs that were not promptly addressed, though these violations were eventually abated by February 2023. Additional maintenance work has included reroofing in 2016 (cost: $14,200), foundation repairs in 1995, and stair repairs that same year.

The property has faced recurring maintenance challenges, particularly with its plumbing systems, as evidenced by multiple complaints and violations in 2022-2023. More recently, in 2023, there was a complaint regarding inadequate heating (failure to reach 70 degrees) and concerns about old windows. The building's maintenance history shows some attention to major systems (roofing, foundation, plumbing), but the clustering of complaints and violations in 2022-2023 raises concerns about the timing and responsiveness of repairs. Parking-related issues near the property have been documented through multiple 311 calls between 2021-2024, primarily regarding vehicles blocking driveways or parking on sidewalks, though these are external to the building's internal conditions.

Risk rating

How 3124 Turk Blvd'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.
