Initial analysis

The 9-unit, 3-story apartment building at 3333 Clement Street in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood has undergone significant recent work following a substantial fire incident in January 2020 that affected the third floor and caused water damage throughout all floors. The building, constructed in 1962 and previously classified as a Tier 3 soft-story structure, completed its seismic retrofit in December 2016. The 2020 fire incident triggered extensive rehabilitation work, including electrical system repairs, window replacements, and plumbing updates. The building received a new fire alarm system in late 2020, along with multiple infrastructure improvements such as roofing work, including sheathing replacement and new TPO roofing, as well as stucco repairs to the roof entrance areas. A comprehensive renovation in 2020 included the installation of new windows throughout the building (39 windows), replacement of six furnaces, bathroom renovations in multiple units, and a complete electrical system evaluation and repair.

The building has a history of addressing fire safety concerns, with past violations related to fire escape maintenance and exit obstructions being resolved. Recent fire safety inspections in 2022 noted issues with street numbering and sprinkler systems, which were subsequently corrected. The property management has demonstrated responsiveness to maintenance needs, as evidenced by recent 311 calls being addressed promptly, including sidewalk repairs and hazardous materials removal in 2022. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to infrastructure upkeep, with multiple systems being updated or replaced over the past few years, including the hot water boiler system and gas lines. The most recent activity at the property includes a noise complaint from December 2023 and an overgrown tree issue reported in October 2023, both of which remain under review or were recently reported.

Risk rating

How 3333 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.
