Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 738-742 Treat Avenue in the Inner Mission, owned by Leon V & Estelita G Ribay L, has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects since its construction in 1911. The most recent major work in 2018 included repairs to both water and sewer lines, while in 2015, the building received significant plumbing and electrical upgrades, including the installation of water recirculation pumps for all three units and replacement of kitchen and bathroom water pipes with copper plumbing. The building had notable structural work completed in 2007, including repairs to the back stairs to address a notice of violation and reinforcement of the three-story porch support, including replacement of posts and concrete bases.

The building's history shows recurring attention to stair safety, with repairs documented in 1988 and 2007, though no recent stair-related issues have been reported. A cluster of violations was recorded in 2007 related to fire safety and gas utility requirements, including egress issues at the rear stair, which were all abated by February 2008. In recent years (2023-2024), there have been multiple 311 calls regarding street maintenance concerns near the property, primarily involving general cleaning and garbage issues, along with several parking enforcement calls for vehicles blocking driveways. Notably, there appears to have been only routine municipal maintenance issues in recent years, with no building-specific complaints or violations recorded since 2008, suggesting improved maintenance and compliance.

Risk rating

How 738-742 Treat Ave'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, 1023 are predicted to be safer.
