Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 634-636 Monterey Boulevard in Sunnyside, owned by Skover Trust, was constructed in 1950 and contains an unknown number of units. The property has undergone several significant improvements since 1999, including siding replacement and window upgrades, a kitchen remodel with electrical upgrades, dry rot repairs, and bathroom renovations. Most recently, in 2010, the building received bathroom updates including retiling, shower valve installations, and a new shower pan, along with necessary plumbing work. A cottage food operation for "Brenda's Decadent Chocolates" was approved in 2024, permitted as an accessory use to the residential unit under RH-2 zoning regulations.

The building's recent history shows multiple parking-related issues in 2024, with seven incidents of illegal parking or driveway blocking reported between May and December 2024, though enforcement officers were often unable to locate the offending vehicles. A tree root issue affecting the sidewalk was reported and is currently under review by the Department of Public Works. The property has undergone several maintenance works over the years, including reroofing in 2007 and various plumbing updates, suggesting regular upkeep of the building's infrastructure. The most recent building permit activity was in 2010, indicating a potential gap in documented improvements or permits in recent years, though this could also reflect completed work that did not require further permits.

Risk rating

How 634-636 Monterey Blvd'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
