AI summary

The three-story multi-family residential building at 751-755 Arguello Boulevard in the Inner Richmond neighborhood, constructed in 1911, has undergone several significant modifications and faced various compliance issues over its history. Most notably, in the year 2000, a $25,000 project was completed to install a garage in the basement, followed by additional alterations to the basement apartment in 2002. The building experienced a series of violations in October 2001 related to safety and fire hazards, including combustible storage issues, broken windows, and various gas utility requirements, all of which were subsequently abated by November 2001. A routine safety inspection in 2016 led to the removal of a wooden utility ladder accessing the roof. More recent concerns include a mold issue reported in 2013 and a series of 311 calls between 2021 and 2024 regarding garbage and debris, though these appear to be more related to street-level maintenance rather than building-specific issues.

The property has undergone various infrastructural improvements, including a house trap replacement under the sidewalk in 2009 and the addition of a 40-amp meter socket in 2003. Planning records indicate an attempt to convert the building into a residential care facility for 18 persons, though this application was ultimately disapproved. While the building has faced multiple violations and safety inspections over the years, most issues appear to have been resolved in a timely manner. The recent history of the property shows no active building violations, though there have been numerous 311 calls regarding street-level maintenance issues, including recent reports of missed collection and abandoned items in 2023-2024.

Risk rating

How 751-755 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.
