Initial analysis

The property at 32-34 Clement Street is a two-story multi-family residential building with ground floor commercial space, constructed in 1904 and owned by Sunstate Development LLC. The building has undergone significant recent improvements, including a major commercial renovation in 2019 valued at $120,000 for a medical office space, and extensive plumbing upgrades between 2020-2021 including sewer and house trap replacement, installation of various sinks and fixtures, and HVAC system improvements with a new gas furnace and AC condenser. Electrical systems were also upgraded with the installation of new wiring and emergency lighting systems in early 2020.

The building has experienced several compliance issues related to vacant commercial storefronts, with violations recorded in 2018 and 2022, though these were subsequently abated. A recent complaint from January 2023 reported an unpermitted awning installation, which was still under investigation as of July 2024. The property has had multiple street space permits issued between 2019-2020, suggesting ongoing exterior maintenance or improvements. Historical maintenance records show attention to sidewalk repairs in 2006-2007. The building has experienced periodic issues with graffiti and illegal postings, particularly during 2018-2020, though all these cases have been resolved. Recent maintenance activities have included general street cleaning and responses to various service requests, with the most recent service recorded in February 2024.

Risk rating

How 32-34 Clement 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.
