Initial analysis

The property at 3930-3934 Geary Blvd is a two-story, multi-family residential building with ground floor commercial space, containing 5 units and built in 1900. The building has undergone numerous significant modifications and improvements over the years, with the most recent work continuing as of 2024, including an ADU construction at the rear and various renovation projects. A major renovation occurred in 2011-2022 that reinstated dwelling units and addressed previous planning complaints, while multiple electrical and plumbing upgrades were completed between 2016-2021, including bathroom renovations, water line replacement, and rewiring of multiple units.

The building has experienced several critical issues over its history, particularly in recent years. There are three pending building complaints from 2022-2023 regarding vacant commercial space and potential storefront transparency violations. Multiple fire code violations were recorded between 2020-2022, though most were corrected or rescinded, including issues with fire escapes and required access to exterior doors. Between 2024-2025, there have been several municipal service calls related to garbage, debris, and noise complaints, including some recent shared spaces and entertainment-related issues. Historical permits show maintenance and repairs were regularly conducted, including window replacements, stucco repairs, and various building systems upgrades. While the property has had its share of code violations and complaints, records indicate that most issues have been addressed through appropriate corrective actions or permits, though some recent complaints remain unresolved as of 2024.

Risk rating

How 3930-3934 Geary Blvd'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.

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.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building age

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 57.9%
Moderate concern 32.0%
Severe concern 10.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
