Initial analysis

The 10-unit apartment building at 4334-4338 California Street, owned by Ccc Lp, has a documented history spanning several decades, with the most significant maintenance work occurring recently in 2019 when a $17,000 reroofing project was completed. The building, constructed in 1911 and classified as a 3-story apartment building, underwent several important improvements and repairs throughout the 2000s, including a voluntary accessible restroom upgrade in 2012 ($9,800), electrical upgrades and plumbing work related to a bathroom installation in 2012, and stair repairs in 2004 to address safety concerns. The building experienced notable safety and maintenance issues in 2004, when multiple violations were documented regarding stair repairs, electrical conduit disconnection, drainage pipes, and smoke detector functionality, all of which were subsequently abated by November 2004.

The property's recent history shows ongoing maintenance attention, with routine safety inspections conducted in 2017 and 2011. There was a water-related issue in 2004 concerning leaks around a skylight that impacted electrical wiring, and earlier maintenance challenges in 1997 when concerns about rotting rear stairs were reported. In 2024, there have been multiple reports of garbage and debris on the property, with twelve such incidents recorded between February and October 2024, primarily involving abandoned furniture and general waste, though most were promptly resolved. A fire complaint from 2009 was documented but was resolved on the same day it was filed. The building has maintained an active record of addressing violations and completing necessary repairs, with most documented issues being promptly resolved within reasonable timeframes.

Risk rating

How 4334-4338 California 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

Out of 660 buildings in this neighborhood, 647 are predicted to be safer.
