Initial analysis

The 2-unit residential building at 243 Diamond Street, located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood, was constructed in 1994 as a three-story flats and duplex structure following the demolition of a single-family dwelling. The property, currently owned by Mahmoud Larizadeh Revoc Lvg, has a documented history of maintenance and some concerning events. Most recently, in 2021, there was an issue with a retaining wall potentially threatening a neighboring property, though this was promptly addressed within approximately one month. The building has undergone several significant repairs over the years, including multiple siding replacements (most recently in 2008 at a cost of $10,000), a fire sprinkler installation attempt in 1993, and several porch and window repairs in the early 2000s related to dry rot issues.

The property has been subject to various 311 calls in recent years, primarily regarding parking violations on adjacent sidewalks, though these are external issues not directly related to the building's condition. There were also some sidewalk maintenance issues reported in 2022 and 2019, which were resolved through appropriate channels. A notable fire safety concern was documented in 2008 regarding blocked exits, though this was resolved within two months. While the building's record shows periodic maintenance and repairs typical for a residential structure of its age, the most significant concerns relate to the retaining wall issue from 2021 and the historical fire safety matter from 2008. The property's management has generally addressed maintenance issues as they arise, as evidenced by the completion of multiple repair permits over the years.

Risk rating

How 243 Diamond 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

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 281 are predicted to be safer.
