Initial analysis

The property at 3239-3241 17th Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Jackie Properties LLC. The building has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past decade, particularly between 2012 and 2019, with substantial work focused on optimizing interior layouts, upgrading electrical systems, and modernizing plumbing infrastructure. Major renovation phases included comprehensive interior updates in 2012 ($95,000), multiple revisions to unit layouts between 2012-2017, and important infrastructure improvements in 2018 such as re-roofing ($8,000), electrical system upgrades, and plumbing work including water line trenching. The building's historical violations from the mid-2000s, which included concerns about unauthorized units, safety hazards in the garage/storage area, and improper occupancy issues, appear to have been resolved by 2005, though there were subsequent complaints in 2004 regarding water intrusion issues.

More recent concerns have emerged regarding the building's exterior and surrounding area, with multiple 311 calls in late 2024 related to garbage, debris, and encampments near the property. Two building-specific complaints were filed in early 2018 regarding improper window installations in the historic building, though these complaints are marked as inactive. The property has undergone significant infrastructural updates, including the installation of new electrical systems, plumbing improvements, and various unit remodeling projects, suggesting ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts by the current ownership. Recent building permits in 2019 primarily focused on final inspections and minor revisions to previously approved work, indicating that major renovation work may have been substantially completed.

Risk rating

How 3239-3241 17Th 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

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 762 are predicted to be safer.

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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Building age

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

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 70.5%
Moderate concern 20.3%
Severe concern 9.2%
