Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2833-2835 Golden Gate Avenue in the Lone Mountain neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1910, currently owned by John D. Loder. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major work being the replacement of 17 windows in 2021, at a cost of approximately $24,000, using energy-efficient materials with a U-factor of less than 0.30. Prior to this, in 2016, the property underwent staircase rebuilding work costing $15,000. In 2003, important updates were made including the legalization and upgrade of a half bathroom in the workshop/storage area, along with electrical improvements of five plugs, bathroom installations, and three lights. The building has also seen earlier cosmetic interior work in 2001 (now expired), which involved kitchen cabinets and appliance updates.

The property has experienced recurring parking-related issues in recent years, with multiple reports of sidewalk parking between 2018 and 2024, resulting in several citations being issued, though some cases were either unable to locate the offending vehicle or were deemed invalid for lack of required information. Additional parking enforcement issues were reported in March 2024, leading to a resolved citation. The building's sole maintenance issue appears to be related to pedestrian and parking congestion, rather than structural or maintenance concerns, though sidewalk repairs were permitted in 2006 (status issued). The most recent maintenance activities have focused on exterior improvements and safety features, with records indicating proper follow-through on permit requirements, suggesting responsible property management in terms of building upkeep and code compliance.

Risk rating

How 2833-2835 Golden Gate 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.
