Initial analysis

The two-story mixed-use building at 337-339 Taraval St, built in 1916, is approximately 3 units of multi-family residential space above retail/restaurant space, currently owned by Tasana Ongbhaibulya Revocab. The ground floor has experienced several significant changes and issues over the past few years, most notably regarding a restaurant and beauty salon space. In 2018, multiple complaints were filed about unpermitted restaurant conversion, unsafe awning conditions, and unauthorized openings between spaces, which led to violations under the San Francisco Building Code. These issues included failures to comply with the Vacant Commercial Storefront Ordinance and unauthorized change of use from beauty salon to restaurant. The property underwent several important infrastructure improvements over the years, including three complete reroofing projects (1997 and 2012), sidewalk repairs (2001), and the installation of kitchen-related fire safety systems (1988).

Recent activity on the property has primarily involved exterior maintenance and environmental concerns, with multiple 311 calls in 2023-2024 regarding garbage, debris, and waste issues on the surrounding streets and sidewalk. A notable issue is the currently open complaint regarding a sidewalk defect caused by tree roots, submitted in July 2024. The building's commercial space underwent significant changes in 2022-2023 when a conditional use authorization was sought and approved for a restaurant expansion, transitioning from the previously intended beauty salon use, though there are still open concerns regarding previous unpermitted modifications from 2018. While the residential and commercial spaces have faced various compliance and maintenance challenges, particularly during 2017-2018, many of the building's infrastructure systems have been updated, though recent environmental cleanliness issues persist around the property.

Risk rating

How 337-339 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
42th percentile

Out of 24 buildings in this neighborhood, 14 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.

Property class: apartment building

Apartment building — this property classification influences expected violation rates.

Neighborhood location

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

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 52.6%
Moderate concern 37.0%
Severe concern 10.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
