Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4082 20th Street in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood is a 1-story flats and duplex structure built in 1905, currently owned by the Jack S Lasner Revocable Trust. The building's maintenance record shows two significant events: a reroofing project undertaken in 2013 costing $7,800, and more concerningly, fire damage repair work that was initiated in 1984 but the specific costs were not documented in the permit system.

The property has experienced a notable number of parking-related issues in recent years, with six documented incidents between 2023 and 2024 involving vehicles blocking driveways or parking on sidewalks. Most of these cases were resolved through citations or warnings from parking enforcement officers. The building's immediate surroundings have also experienced periodic street maintenance challenges, as evidenced by two mechanical street sweeping missed route complaints in 2021, though these were addressed with intervention from street cleaning authorities. Other incidents in the vicinity include an excessive noise complaint filed in November 2024 (currently open), an abandoned loose garbage issue resolved by Recology in January 2023, a defaced parking sign repaired in November 2021, and a resolved sidewalk parking issue in April 2023. While the building's age and history suggest it has weathered various challenges over the decades, the most recent issues primarily relate to parking and street maintenance rather than structural or safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 4082 20Th 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 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 435 are predicted to be safer.
