Initial analysis

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 3819-3823 Anza Street in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Richard Gelber & Rudeen Mon, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1948. Most recently, in October 2022, the building received an energy-efficient upgrade with the installation of 10 new windows on the non-street-visible sides, meeting modern U-factor standards with a cost of $18,860. Previous major improvements include electrical system upgrades in 2013 for wheelchair accessibility, 2006 for expanded appliance support, and 2004 for laundry room enhancements, as well as structural maintenance work such as a retaining wall replacement in 2003 and reroofing in 1998.

The building's history includes a notable complaint about unauthorized early morning construction noise in January 2021, though this issue was quickly addressed within two days. A routine housing inspection was recorded in March 2003 and is still listed as active in the records. While there have been several parking-related incidents in the vicinity between 2018-2023, including multiple reports of sidewalk blocking and some citation issuance, these occurred on public streets rather than on the property itself. The only recorded hazardous condition was listed as a "400 Hazardous condition, other" with no associated date or civilian injuries, though this appears to be an administrative insertion. Recent service requests from 2018-2023 primarily involve parking enforcement matters, defaced signs, and general public works inquiries, with all cases now resolved.

Risk rating

How 3819-3823 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.

Neighborhood percentile
