Initial analysis

The property at 737-739 Arguello Boulevard is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1905, currently owned by Anobel Youhana & Car. The building has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past decade, with the most substantial work occurring between 2012-2015. Major renovations included the conversion of unit 737's ground floor living room into a garage in 2014 (completed at a cost of $88,272), followed by comprehensive remodels of both units' kitchens and bathrooms, including electrical upgrades with new panels and fixtures, completed in late 2015. The building has also received necessary maintenance work, including roof repair and skylight installation in 2014, and various plumbing updates such as water heater replacements and sewer repairs in 2008.

A notable recent issue involves a building complaint filed in November 2021 regarding unauthorized construction of an allegedly oversize fence in the backyard, though this case was marked as not active in February 2024. The property has experienced recurring parking-related incidents, with multiple complaints about driveway blocking between 2021-2023, including three separate incidents in September 2023 alone. Two tree damage incidents were reported in January 2022, likely related to storm damage, which were addressed by city response crews. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep and modernization efforts, with no significant health or safety violations noted in the available data. Recent 311 calls have primarily concerned parking enforcement and minor maintenance issues like graffiti and damaged trees.

Risk rating

How 737-739 Arguello Blvd'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.
