Initial analysis

The property at 1933-1935 Taraval Street is a mixed-use building located in the Parkside neighborhood, constructed in 1923 and comprising two residential units plus commercial space. The one-story building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including a complete re-roofing project in 2016 costing $30,000, and a 2011 upgrade to its fire suppression system to UL 300 standards. Notable electrical upgrades were performed in 2005-2006, including installation of a 200-amp service and later a reduction to 175-amp service. The building has experienced some concerning incidents, including fire damage in 1991 and two recent complaints about unauthorized modifications: a 2019 complaint about unpermitted kitchen modifications and a 2022 report of electrical work performed without proper permits.

Recent maintenance and safety records show continuing attention to basic infrastructure, though there have been multiple reports of garbage and debris issues around the property, with eight separate street cleaning cases filed between May and October 2024. The building's commercial space has been operated as a restaurant, with the most recent permits showing approvals for Health and ABC Type 41 licensing. While the property has generally maintained proper permits for major systems upgrades, the recent history of unpermitted modifications raises concerns about maintenance of building codes, though these issues appear to have been addressed through proper permitting processes in subsequent years.

Risk rating

How 1933-1935 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.
