Initial analysis

The 4-unit multi-family residential building at 3516 Taraval Street in San Francisco's Outer Parkside neighborhood was constructed in 1955 and is owned by Bruno A & Norma A Davis Sur. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including a 2000 renovation of apartments 1 and 4 that involved floor repairs, bathroom updates, lighting, and repainting, as well as the 2005 electrical upgrade to 200-amp underground service. Other maintenance records show a wall furnace replacement in 2011. The building has experienced four routine inspections between 1997 and 2003, with one violation recorded in 2001 regarding the need to recharge fire extinguishers, though this was promptly resolved within a month.

Most notably, there has been a concerning pattern of parking violations near the property, with numerous 311 calls in 2024 regarding vehicles blocking driveways, particularly between August and October 2024, resulting in several citations being issued.

Risk rating

How 3516 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.
