Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 2308-2310 Taraval Street, owned by the Chua Family 2012 Trust, was constructed in 1990 and includes a ground-floor commercial space. The property has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance work over the years, including a reroofing project in 2019 ($18,000), accessibility upgrades in 2011 (completed), and the installation of new office/exam rooms in 2004 ($65,000). The building has experienced recurring fire safety system issues, with multiple complaints between 2017-2024 regarding alarm systems, extinguishers, and blocked exits, though all were marked as "Condition Corrected" upon follow-up inspections. Of particular concern were three sewage-related incidents between 2007-2009, including a serious backup that affected neighboring properties, and a recent discharge from a side sewer vent reported in December 2024. The building's maintenance record shows regular attention to infrastructure, including electrical panel relocation and bathroom remodels in 2011, though there have been some concerning patterns of violations, particularly related to fire safety and drainage systems, with multiple citations in 2001 and 2007.

Recent activity at the property includes several maintenance calls in late 2024 regarding garbage debris, tree maintenance, and sewer issues, suggesting ongoing attention to building and site upkeep. The building's fire safety systems remain a point of focus, with the most recent fire complaints in 2023-2024 requiring attention to extinguishers and alarm systems. A historical permit from 1989 indicates the presence of fire sprinklers, though current system status should be verified. The property has undergone various tenant improvements and accessibility upgrades, demonstrating compliance with modern building standards, though the pattern of recurring fire safety issues suggests periodic maintenance or inspection requirements.

Risk rating

How 2308-2310 Taraval 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
28th percentile

Out of 255 buildings in this neighborhood, 184 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 64.5%
Moderate concern 15.5%
Severe concern 19.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
