Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 140 3rd Avenue, owned by Turko Squyer Revocable Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900 located in the Lake - Presidio neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work over the past few decades, with the most substantial improvements occurring in 2006-2008. During this period, a $50,000 project replaced an old laundry deck and rear stair with a new sunroom, deck, and rear stair. Comprehensive plumbing upgrades were completed in 2008-2013, including the installation of an on-demand hot water heater, new bathroom fixtures, gas lines, and a sewer house trap. Additional electrical work in 2008 involved installing 20 lights, 15 switches, and multiple receptacles and circuits.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural integrity, with records indicating repairs for dry rot and termite damage at the southern corner of the building in 1992, though this permit has since expired. The property has experienced a few external incidents, including a sidewalk defect in 2010 requiring attention to approximately 135 square feet of damaged pavement, and a general cleaning issue in 2009 involving loose garbage. A park rule violation was reported near the property in 2014, though this was addressed by park patrol authorities. The building has one recorded hazardous condition incident, though no civilian injuries were reported and no specific details are available in the provided data. While the property has undergone various improvements and maintenance work, the records suggest regular upkeep and compliance with city requirements, particularly during the 2006-2008 renovation period.

Risk rating

How 140 3Rd 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.

Neighborhood percentile
80th percentile

Out of 660 buildings in this neighborhood, 132 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 79.4%
Moderate concern 16.8%
Severe concern 3.8%
