Initial analysis

The three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 876 Treat Ave in the Inner Mission, owned by Thomas P & Brenda A Mcdonal, has undergone several significant improvements and faced challenges since its construction in 1915. Most recently, in August 2023, the building successfully completed an upgrade to its fire alarm system to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and a new fire panel. The building has a history of addressing safety and structural concerns, including a 2004-2005 period when two illegal garage units were removed, and foundation work was completed at a cost of $15,000. Previous violations from December 2003 related to heating, security, and maintenance issues were all abated by May 2015, including problems with window hardware, floor coverings, and inadequate heat in occupied rooms. The property has received regular maintenance attention, with window replacements completed in 2003-2004, heating system upgrades in 1984, and various electrical improvements.

The building's recent history shows proactive management of safety requirements, with no active housing code violations or complaints currently outstanding. Historical complaints from 2004-2006 included issues with heating, plumbing, and general maintenance, but all were addressed and resolved. More recent building-specific 311 calls have primarily been for street cleaning and parking enforcement matters, with the most recent in October 2023. The property has demonstrated consistent attention to fire safety requirements, as evidenced by the recent fire alarm system upgrades, and has successfully resolved past violations through appropriate repairs and improvements. The building's record shows a pattern of addressing both routine maintenance needs and more significant structural and safety requirements over its long history.

Risk rating

How 876 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

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 32.2%
Moderate concern 47.8%
Severe concern 20.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
