Initial analysis

The property at 4001-4003 18th Street is a two-story, mixed-use building constructed in 1900, featuring three residential units and ground-floor commercial space, currently owned by Khanna Lvg Tr. The building has undergone several significant renovations over the years, with the most substantial work occurring between 2007-2008, including a major $100,000 remodeling of the restaurant space that involved dining area modifications, kitchen updates, and compliance improvements. In 2014, the building experienced a serious incident when a vehicle collided with its east exterior wall, displacing structural components and requiring $95,000 in repairs. More recent concerns include a 2021 complaint about electrical and heating issues in the residential space, though this has since been marked as not active. The building has had various infrastructure upgrades, including a 400-amp electrical service upgrade in 2008 and a water main replacement in 2013, suggesting efforts to maintain and modernize the building's core systems.

The property's maintenance history shows attention to safety and compliance issues, with several building violations being promptly addressed. These include a 2011 water heater installation issue that was resolved within a month and multiple plumbing and electrical improvements. The building underwent routine inspections in 2019 and had various other plumbing and electrical work completed as needed. Of particular note is a recent 2024 plumbing inspection-related complaint that was resolved promptly. The property has maintained a general pattern of addressing violations and maintaining systems, though periodic issues with heating, electrical, and ventilation systems have been documented. A proposal for a cannabis dispensary was withdrawn in 2021, and recent 311 calls primarily relate to street signage and sidewalk maintenance rather than building-specific issues.

Risk rating

How 4001-4003 18Th 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
