Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 230-232 Hartford Street, located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1911 and currently owned by the Sandhya Latham Trust. The property's maintenance history shows several significant repairs and improvements over the past decades, with the most recent major maintenance occurring in 2018 when approximately 50 square feet of siding and corner framing was replaced due to dry rot damage at a cost of $10,000. The building has undergone multiple repairs throughout the 1990s, including work on siding, trim, doors, cracks, foundation, and windows in 1996, as well as a complete reroofing in 1995.

A notable building violation occurred in September 2010 when an old water heater was improperly stored on the roof, though this was resolved within a month. Recent activity at the property has primarily involved exterior maintenance, particularly regarding garbage and debris management. Between July 2024 and January 2025, there were multiple reports (nine in total) concerning loose garbage, yard waste, and abandoned items including furniture and a Christmas tree, though all these cases were resolved by city services including Recology and Public Works, with some being marked as "No Work Needed." While these exterior maintenance issues have been consistently addressed by local authorities, they represent the most recent and ongoing concern associated with the property, with the majority of cases showing prompt resolution through official channels.

Risk rating

How 230-232 Hartford 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.
