Initial analysis

The property at 866 33rd Avenue is a two-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1924, this two-story flats and duplex building has recently undergone significant renovation work totaling over $500,000 in improvements. In late 2023 and early 2024, major upgrades were completed including the infill of a lightwell, creation of new living spaces and bathrooms in both units, kitchen relocations, installation of hydronic floor heating, and comprehensive window replacements. The electrical system received substantial improvements with a 200-amp service panel upgrade and complete rewiring of both units in October 2023. Plumbing work has included the installation of new bathrooms, relocation of plumbing fixtures, and updates to the sewer and vent systems, with the most recent plumbing permits issued in January 2024.

The building's recent improvements appear to focus on modernizing the infrastructure and expanding living spaces, with particular attention to safety and comfort systems such as new furnaces and hydronic heating. Historical records show a few maintenance issues from previous years, including a sewage backup in 2013 and a burnt-out streetlight in 2016, though these were resolved. A pavement defect was reported in September 2023 that remains open. The current owners, Gregory and Viole Gershkovich, have actively pursued comprehensive upgrades to the property, as evidenced by multiple permits and planning records detailing the scope of work completed. The building's age and the extent of recent renovations suggest both structural integrity and modernized living conditions, though prospective tenants should verify the current status of the open pavement defect case.

Risk rating

How 866-868 33Rd Ave'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

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 73 are predicted to be safer.

12-Month severity forecast
