Initial analysis

The 20-unit, four-story apartment building at 3080-3092 16th Street, built in 1990 and managed by Mission Housing Dev Corp LA, has undergone significant infrastructure improvements in recent years. In 2022, the building received major upgrades including a new roof ($128,500), installation of a solar PV system (37.35 kW), structural modifications for future PV panels, and the addition of new washer/dryer units. The building's safety systems have been a particular focus, with recent fire safety improvements including violation corrections for sprinkler/standpipe systems and alarm systems in late 2023. However, the property has faced recurring fire safety issues, with multiple violations between 2023-2024 related to sleeping area requirements, blocked exits, and system maintenance.

The building has a history of maintenance and safety concerns that have generally been addressed promptly. Past issues included elevator failures (2011), multiple fire safety violations and complaints, and a significant plumbing upgrade in 2022 involving four new boilers. Recent 311 reports from January 2025 indicate ongoing exterior maintenance challenges, including graffiti and debris issues. While the building has experienced various safety and maintenance violations over the years, most have been resolved or addressed, with the exception of some more recent fire safety violations. The property has active street-level commercial space, with past complaints regarding vibrations affecting residential units and recent complaints about unpermitted work related to the ground floor commercial space.

Risk rating

How 3080-3092 16Th 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.
