Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2936 Taraval St in San Francisco's Outer Parkside neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1958, currently owned by Tom Katherine L & Elizabeth. The building underwent significant electrical upgrades in December 2008, including the installation of a new 200-amp underground service with two meters and converting from overhead lines, which indicates modernization of the building's electrical infrastructure. A street space permit was issued for the property in February 2013, though this represents a relatively minor administrative matter.

The property has experienced several maintenance and service issues over the past few years, with the most recent being a missing side sewer vent cover reported in May 2023, which was resolved along with other sidewalk defects. Other historical calls to city services include a general cleaning request for loose garbage in April 2019, a blocked driveway complaint in May 2020 (which officers were unable to locate), and a customer callback regarding traffic engineering in February 2021. While these incidents indicate routine urban maintenance challenges rather than any serious safety concerns, they do reflect typical issues encountered in a multi-family residential building in an urban environment.

Risk rating

How 2936 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.
