Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 336-340 Willard Street, located in the Lone Mountain neighborhood, is a three-story flats and duplex structure built in 1909, currently owned by the Bypass Trust Of The Hamiltons. The property has undergone several significant renovations and safety improvements over the years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2001-2002 when a basement garage conversion, bathroom additions on all floors, and the installation of a wood fire escape stair were completed at a cost of $90,000. The building received modern updates including kitchen remodeling, window replacements, and the installation of automatic fire sprinklers in the basement with 21 heads. More recent improvements include multiple parking-related issues addressed through enforcement actions between 2023-2024, with numerous reports of blocked driveways being consistently addressed by parking enforcement personnel. The property underwent electrical upgrades in 2003, though that particular permit was cancelled, and has had various street space permits issued over the years.

The building's safety features have been progressively enhanced, with notable improvements including kitchen remodels, bathroom additions, and rear yard variance approvals for stairs to serve as a second means of egress. While there have been periodic routine housing inspections in 2001 and 2004, no active violations were recorded. The property has experienced recurring issues with blocked driveways, as evidenced by multiple enforcement actions throughout 2023-2024, though these are primarily parking enforcement matters rather than building safety concerns. Recent maintenance issues such as defaced parking signs (reported August 2024) and loose garbage (April 2024) were promptly addressed by city services, indicating responsive management of exterior maintenance matters.

Risk rating

How 336-340 Willard 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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 73.0%
Moderate concern 17.5%
Severe concern 9.6%
