Initial analysis

The property at 3603-3607 Anza Street in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood is a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1921, currently owned by Esplanada De Anza LLC. The building has undergone significant electrical upgrades in recent years, with multiple permits in 2020 indicating comprehensive electrical work including the removal of old knob-and-tube wiring, installation of new circuits, sub-panels, and modern safety features such as hardwired smoke detectors. Historical records show the building faced various safety and maintenance challenges, particularly in 2002 when multiple violations were documented, including issues with handrails, combustible storage, and general building systems, though these were all resolved by October 2002. A routine housing inspection in 2011 noted additional concerns regarding fire safety equipment, which were also subsequently addressed.

The building's maintenance history shows earlier concerns as well, with violations in 1986 requiring code compliance work and a 2001 complaint about worn and cracking stairs in common areas. More recently, there have been persistent issues with parking enforcement surrounding the property, with multiple citations issued between 2022 and 2024 for vehicles blocking driveways — this appears to be an ongoing challenge based on the frequency of these incidents. The property's documented improvements, particularly the comprehensive electrical system upgrades in 2020, demonstrate recent efforts to modernize and maintain safety standards, while the resolution of past housing violations indicates that historical maintenance issues have generally been addressed.

Risk rating

How 3603-3607 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.
