AI summary

The three-story multi-family residential building at 84-98 Carl Street, owned by Henry Slamovich Tr-2003, was constructed in 1909 and contains 6 units. The property has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, most notably a voluntary fire alarm system replacement in 2023 that included mandatory low-frequency sounder upgrades, though it's important to note that the building is non-sprinklered. Other substantial work includes a kitchen and bathroom remodel in 2022, electrical rewiring of one apartment, and various plumbing upgrades including a main service replacement in 2017 and the installation of a tankless water heater in 2016. The building completed its soft-story retrofit work, achieving Tier 4 compliance with a Certificate of Final Completion issued.

The property has had some concerning incidents, including a 2022 complaint regarding potential lead paint hazards during renovation work, and a significant plumbing issue in 2004 involving deteriorated exterior drainage infrastructure. A building complaint from February 2023 regarding an unpermitted new sign for the flower shop is currently listed as active. While routine inspections have generally shown compliance, there was an incident in 2011 involving a back stairway separation that required attention. The property has experienced recurring issues with street cleaning and maintenance in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in recent months, primarily related to garbage and debris, though these are external to the building itself. Recent improvements indicate ongoing maintenance and upgrading of building systems, though the non-sprinklered status and the active sign complaint are worth noting from a safety and compliance perspective.

Risk rating

How 84-98 Carl 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.
