Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 3365-3369 17th Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Eng Family Trust B, has undergone several significant renovations since its construction in 1907. Most recently, in late 2021, substantial improvements were completed in units 3365 and 3367, including the addition of full bathrooms and washer/dryer relocations, with associated plumbing and electrical work costing approximately $30,000. The building has a documented history of addressing maintenance and safety issues, including a notable fire incident in 2015 that required repairs to a porch area, and multiple fire code compliance matters between 2016 and 2023. A comprehensive renovation occurred in 2014, addressing multiple units with bathroom and kitchen remodels, window replacements, and electrical system upgrades. The building has experienced several housing inspections over the years, with issues identified in 2002 and 2012 being resolved, including concerns about egress obstruction, security features, and interior conditions.

Recent concerns have focused on fire safety compliance, with the most recent violation issued in December 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements. The building's location has unfortunately been subject to recurring maintenance issues as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in late 2024 relating to graffiti and debris removal, as well as ongoing maintenance of public spaces around the building. While the property has experienced various maintenance challenges over the years, records indicate that most identified issues have been addressed through permitted improvements or other corrective actions. The building's electrical and plumbing systems have received significant upgrades, with particular attention to modernizing units and improving safety features. The property has maintained active engagement with city regulations, as evidenced by numerous permits and inspections, though some recent violations indicate areas requiring continued attention to fire safety requirements.

Risk rating

How 3365-3369 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.

Building age

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