Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 14 Hill Street in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood is a three-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900, currently owned by the Marek Family Trust. The property has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major work being the replacement of the furnace in October 2013 and reroofing work in August 2012. Between 2010-2012, the building experienced substantial interior and exterior improvements, including comprehensive bathroom and kitchen remodels (with energy-efficient upgrades), electrical rewiring of multiple rooms, and corridor modifications. During this period, several building violations were documented and subsequently abated, including issues with stairs, drainage pipes, weather proofing, and heating systems, all of which were addressed through various permitted repairs and upgrades by April 2010.

The building has experienced some maintenance challenges over the years, with multiple complaints filed in 2007 concerning plumbing, electrical, and building issues, though all were ultimately resolved by April 2010. A significant complaint regarding unpermitted concrete installation in the front setback area was filed in July 2009 and resolved by April 2010. Several building permit applications were submitted and completed during this period, including work to comply with a Notice of Violation regarding front stairs and concrete slabs. Recent 311 calls from 2019 to 2024 primarily concern street cleaning and garbage debris issues outside the building, though these are external matters not directly related to building conditions. While there have been numerous improvement projects and some violations over time, almost all issues documented on record have been properly addressed through permits and compliance measures.

Risk rating

How 14 Hill 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
