Initial analysis

The property at 40-42 Sanchez Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Duboce Triangle neighborhood, built in 1906 and currently owned by Bevshaw Properties LLC. The building is undergoing significant planned improvements, with a major permitted project filed in July 2024 valued at $750,000 that includes converting 709 square feet of unconditioned garage space into habitable space, adding new stairs, bedrooms, bathrooms, and a patio area. The property has a history of tenant buyouts in 2021, during which four separate transactions totaling $450,330 were recorded for vacating units. A building complaint was filed in October 2021 regarding unauthorized construction work and noise from a middle unit in the Victorian-style structure, though this complaint is currently listed as not active.

The building underwent reroofing in 2007, and lesser maintenance issues have been documented over the years, including the removal of broken plaster from three rooms in 1990. Recent activity around the property has generated multiple 311 calls in late 2024, primarily related to street and sidewalk maintenance issues such as graffiti, garbage, and unauthorized parking, as well as some operational matters like parking violations and encampments in the vicinity. The property was involved in planning records activity for a remodel and expansion project, which included various improvements such as window replacements, lightwell infill, and patio modifications, though this specific work was not intended to affect the upper unit.

Risk rating

How 40-42 Sanchez 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.
