Initial analysis

The property at 535 Eureka Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Noe Valley, constructed in 1908 and currently owned by Nadia Ruimy and Linda Lropowe. The building has undergone significant recent renovations, particularly in 2023, with substantial improvements made to unit 537, including a bathroom remodel ($25,000), kitchen remodel ($20,000), and associated plumbing and electrical upgrades totaling approximately $45,000. One of the most substantial historical renovations was completed in 2015, involving a comprehensive interior reconfiguration of the lower unit with a budget of $66,500, which included bathroom and kitchen remodeling, relocation of windows and doors, and installation of various modern fixtures including can lights, appliances, and smoke detectors.

The building's maintenance and safety systems have been regularly updated, with the most recent work focusing on modernizing both units' facilities to current standards. Historical records show earlier improvements including electrical work in 2013 related to furnace and water heater flues. The property has experienced minimal internal issues requiring external intervention, with the majority of recent 311 calls (2024) relating to parking concerns in the vicinity of the building rather than the building itself. These external calls consisted primarily of double parking and abandoned vehicle reports, along with some sanitation-related issues which were promptly resolved. The building's recent improvements, particularly the 2023 renovations, suggest proactive maintenance by the owners, though it's worth noting that some older permits, such as a reroofing permit from 1988, have expired and may require verification of completion status.

Risk rating

How 535 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
89th percentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 207 are predicted to be safer.

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 79.3%
Moderate concern 11.6%
Severe concern 9.0%
