Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 32-36 Delmar Street in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood, built in 1900 and currently owned by Stjohn Robert & Rosa Fam Tr, has undergone several significant modifications and faced some safety challenges over the years. Most recently, in 2016, the building received window upgrades in the living room, replacing three front wood windows with energy-efficient Marvin Ultrex fiberglass windows and one vinyl window in the rear bedroom. The building has a documented history of sewer-related issues, with multiple incidents reported between 2020-2021, including flooding and a sewage backup in October 2020, as well as three flooding incidents in January 2021. In March 2003, the building was subject to housing violations regarding combustible storage at ground floor level and the need for a gas utility shutoff tool, though these were resolved by June 2003. The property underwent reroofing in 2002, and there were some sidewalk-related permits issued in 2000, though these records are marked as expired.

More concerning is the building's history of gas-related incidents, including a carbon monoxide incident and a natural gas leak, both of which fortunately resulted in no civilian injuries. The property has undergone two routine housing inspections (2003 and 2008), and while the 2003 inspection revealed safety concerns that required remediation, there have been no active violations since 2003. Recent 311 calls have primarily related to parking issues in the vicinity of the property, with several complaints about driveway blocking and sidewalk parking, as well as reports of abandoned vehicles in 2023 and 2024. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep, with significant improvements such as the 2016 window replacements, but the recurring sewer issues between 2020-2021 suggest some challenges with the building's infrastructure during that period.

Risk rating

How 32-36 Delmar 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.

Neighborhood percentile
51th percentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 285 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

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 56.5%
Moderate concern 20.5%
Severe concern 22.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
