Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3252-3254 16th Street in Mission Dolores is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1908, currently owned by Stacei Suarez. The property has undergone various significant maintenance and improvement work over the decades, with recent major updates including electrical work in October 2024 to replace an old Federal Pacific panel and plumbing work in August 2024 to install a sink on the second floor. The building faced several serious maintenance issues in early 2018 relating to exterior paint conditions, with multiple violations issued regarding lead paint hazards, weatherproofing requirements, and paint chip debris concerns; however, all these violations were successfully abated by June 2018. Historical records show earlier permitted improvements in the 1980s, including a stairway enclosure and garage work, though some of these permits expired without completion.

The building's more recent history shows continuing responsiveness to maintenance needs, with the most recent permits indicating ongoing updates to the building's infrastructure. There have been several parking-related complaints in 2024, primarily regarding driveway blocking, though these are external issues not directly related to building conditions. The property has experienced a few false fire alarms and system malfunctions over the years, all of which resulted in no injuries or actual fire situations. While there were multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding parking issues and noise, these external matters don't directly reflect on the building's condition or management. The most recent building improvements, particularly the electrical and plumbing upgrades, suggest active property management and maintenance efforts current as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 3252-3254 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.

Neighborhood percentile

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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 82.2%
Moderate concern 11.9%
Severe concern 6.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
