AI summary

The property at 3164-3174 Turk Blvd is a two-story, five-unit multi-family residential building located in the Lone Mountain neighborhood, constructed in 1963 and currently owned by the Wing-ky Chan Revocable Trust. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and safety-related events, with the most pressing issues occurring in March 2009 when multiple violations were documented during a routine safety inspection. These violations included concerns about fire escape drop ladder functionality, fire alarm panel certification, and water heater strapping requirements, along with plumbing system issues relating to dryer venting and water heater security. All these 2009 violations were officially abated by April 16, 2009, following necessary repairs including the installation of a booster fan for the dryer vent and proper strapping of water heaters, as evidenced by the completion of plumbing permit PP20090306699.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural issues, including a dry rot repair at the front of the building completed in 1992. More recent activities include a routine safety inspection by Housing Inspection Services in 2017, though no violations from this inspection are currently on record. The property has experienced several infrastructure challenges in the surrounding area, with multiple 311 calls regarding blocked driveways in 2023 and a sewage backup issue reported in August 2022 that was subsequently resolved by PUC Sewer Operations. Other reported issues include illegal postings in 2020-2021 and a lifted sidewalk condition noted in September 2019, which remains open as of the last report. The building's documented history shows that while there were significant safety concerns in 2009, these were addressed promptly, and no similar violations have been recorded in recent years. However, there are recurring issues with parking enforcement in the area, as evidenced by multiple citations for blocked driveways between 2022 and 2024.

Risk rating

How 3164-3174 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 519 buildings in this neighborhood, 389 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 69.1%
Moderate concern 17.8%
Severe concern 13.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
