AI summary

Located at 2943-2949 Anza Street in the Central Richmond neighborhood, this two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building was constructed in 1920 and is currently owned by Jonathan Ng and Shirle Gee-ng. The property has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the past three decades, with the most substantial work occurring in March 2012, when comprehensive updates including kitchen and bathroom replacements, electrical upgrades, and the installation of a new main sewer pipe were completed at a cost exceeding $18,000. Prior improvements include a complete window replacement project for the entire building in 2004, dry rot repairs in 2002, and various interior updates in 1992.

The building experienced a cluster of violations in June 2002 that were resolved by October 2002, including issues with egress obstruction, stair repairs, and plumbing/electrical concerns, all of which were addressed through subsequent permitted work. Recent history shows regular maintenance of the surrounding area, with multiple 311 calls regarding street cleaning and tree maintenance between 2021 and 2024, though these are primarily related to public space rather than building condition. The most recent permits on record, from 2012, indicate that major systematic updates were completed, though no significant building violations or internal maintenance issues have been recorded in the past decade, suggesting stable building management and maintenance practices by the current ownership.

Risk rating

How 2943-2949 Anza 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.

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.

Number of units

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 65.1%
Moderate concern 23.2%
Severe concern 11.7%
