Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 128 Eureka Street, located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1904, currently owned by Frederic A Muhlheim & Joseph. The property has undergone several significant improvements over recent years, most notably the installation of a roof-mounted solar PV system in October 2021 (3.33kW system with 9 panels) and substantial interior renovations in 2017 including bathroom conversions, kitchen remodeling, and corresponding electrical work. The building has also seen important structural maintenance, including voluntary seismic retrofitting and foundation work completed in 2004, window restorations in 2018, and a complete reroofing project in 2021. Historical records show earlier maintenance activities including termite repairs (1995) and deck/window repairs (1987).

The property has experienced some recent challenges requiring attention, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 related to street cleaning (garbage and debris), illegal postings, and parking violations. Graffiti incidents were recorded in 2022, though these were marked as resolved. A building fire incident is noted in the records, with no civilian injuries reported. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep and improvements, with permits consistently indicating work has been completed, though the 1995 termite repair permit is listed as expired. The property's systems have been modernized with solar power installations (2007 and 2021), suggesting proactive environmental upgrades by the owners.

Risk rating

How 128 Eureka 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
87th percentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 166 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.

Building age

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

Neighborhood location

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

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 78.9%
Moderate concern 15.9%
Severe concern 5.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
