Initial analysis

The 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1000-1004 Vicente Street, owned by Brian Schlindwein, was constructed in 1952 and has undergone several significant improvements and modifications over the years. Most notably, there was a voluntary $40,000 seismic retrofit completed in 2019, followed by the legalization of a 350-square-foot ground floor dwelling unit in September 2020, though the status of this permit is still listed as "Filed." In 2016, substantial renovations were completed including electrical, plumbing, and mechanical upgrades, window replacements on the south side, and the addition of bathrooms in units 1002 and 1004, with costs totaling approximately $185,745. The building has experienced various maintenance and safety upgrades, including window replacements in 2018, fireplace removal, and historical fireplace modifications.

The property has a history of addressing fire safety concerns, with several fire-related violations from 2000 that were promptly abated, including issues with fire extinguishers and combustible storage. Recent building complaints include reports of work being done without proper permits in 2019, and construction noise complaints in 2021 during street construction work. While there have been multiple fire department responses, these were primarily for alarm system malfunctions and medical assists, with no fire-related injuries recorded. The building's infrastructure has been actively maintained, with recent 311 calls (from 2024/2025) primarily related to street and sidewalk issues rather than building-specific problems. The property has previously undergone routine safety inspections in 2000 and 2003, and several tenant buyouts have been recorded, including one in 2017 for $20,000 and another in 2021 for $19,400, though the specific units affected were not consistently documented.

Risk rating

How 1000-1004 Vicente 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.
