Initial analysis

The property at 3466-3470 16th Street, owned by Jacobi Jora, is a 2-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood. Built in 1900, the building has undergone significant renovations and improvements in recent years, with the most substantial work occurring between 2022 and 2024. Major projects have included a voluntary seismic upgrade in early 2022 ($81,000), solar panel installation ($20,000), and the renovation of two bathrooms with insulation and electrical upgrades to remove old knob-and-tube wiring ($70,000). The building underwent approximately $140,000 worth of improvements in 2024 alone, including additional bathroom renovations and kitchen remodeling at unit 3468, plus structural revisions related to framing and foundation work.

The property has transitioned from four legal units to three, following the legalization of an existing first-floor studio in 2021. During this period, significant infrastructure updates have been completed, including water heater replacements, complete plumbing system upgrades, and electrical system improvements including a new 400A service installation in 2018. Historical records show a building violation in 2000 concerning unpermitted front stairs replacement, though this was resolved by November 2000. The property has experienced various maintenance issues in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple parking enforcement calls, graffiti reports, and a tree-related complaint in 2023, though these are primarily external to the building itself. A tenant buyout occurred at 3470 16th Street in 2017 for $106,440.

Risk rating

How 3466-3470 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.
