Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 225-227 Eureka Street, owned by the Damm Carol J Living Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900 in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood. The property has undergone several significant upgrades and maintenance work over the past decades, with the most recent major improvements including a comprehensive electrical service upgrade completed in September 2023, which included installing two meters, a new 70-amp subpanel, multiple dedicated circuits, and smoke detectors. Prior to this, the building received a new roof in January 2020 at a cost of $30,880, and the electrical system received attention in 2004 with the installation of new gas lines and electrical fixtures. The building's infrastructure work dates back to 1999 when foundation and shear wall repairs were completed, and includes earlier improvements such as a bathroom remodel in 1985 and furnace replacement in 2011.

Recent records show the property has experienced recurring issues with vehicles blocking driveways, with at least seven citations issued between August and November 2024. There have also been multiple reports of sanitation issues (specifically human waste or urine) in the vicinity of the property in 2024, along with some general service requests to municipal departments. While the building's major systems appear to have received regular attention and upgrading over the years, as evidenced by the substantial electrical upgrade in 2023 and ongoing maintenance work, the recent pattern of parking and sanitation issues in the immediate vicinity may be of interest to potential residents. The most recent documented tenant buyout occurred in September 2015 at the nearby address of 221 Eureka Street, involving four tenants and a payment of $20,000.

Risk rating

How 225-227 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
97th percentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 38 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.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 81.9%
Moderate concern 11.0%
Severe concern 7.1%
