Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3433-3435 Balboa Street in the Outer Richmond, owned by the Fedewa Family Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1947. The property has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, most notably in 2019 when substantial renovations were completed including electrical system upgrades for both units (installing new wiring for kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, and garage), a kitchen remodel, and plumbing updates including new kitchen fixtures. In 2022, both units received modern HVAC upgrades with the installation of heat pump split systems, replacing the older gas furnaces. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural integrity, with termite-related repairs completed in 2019 at a cost of $30,000, and a re-roofing project completed in 2014.

The property has experienced recurring issues with illegal postings in the vicinity, with multiple incidents recorded between 2020 and 2022, though these were primarily external to the building itself. Recent maintenance and service calls have generally been resolved satisfactorily, including graffiti removal from public areas and responses to various neighborhood concerns. The most recent building-related improvements were focused on energy efficiency and comfort, with no recorded complaints about building systems or structural issues in the past two years. The property's documented history suggests regular maintenance and updating of essential systems, with particular attention paid to both units' simultaneous upgrades to ensure uniform living conditions.

Risk rating

How 3433-3435 Balboa 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.
