Initial analysis

The duplex at 843-845 Dolores Street is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Michael Huff and Christ Gomez. The property has undergone several significant renovations over the past two decades, with the most recent improvements including a kitchen remodel scheduled for late 2024 (valued at $15,000), a bathroom renovation completed in 2022, and substantial work in 2015 that included interior remodeling, bathroom updates, dry rot repairs, and skylight installations (valued at $45,000). Prior modifications from 2015 involved adding a downstairs shower and modifying living spaces in both units, while 2007 saw the replacement of stucco with redwood siding on the front facade. The building underwent roof replacement in 2020.

Recent maintenance and compliance issues have emerged as areas of concern, including multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding sidewalk parking violations, an open tree root damage complaint from March 2024, and a missing side sewer vent cover issue in late 2023 that was subsequently resolved. A building complaint was filed in July 2022 regarding unpermitted work and construction-related disturbances, though this complaint is currently listed as not active. The property's electrical and plumbing systems have received attention as part of the renovation work, with permits showing updates to bathroom facilities including lighting, switches, and receptacles. An underground PG&E electrical installation was completed in 2004, demonstrating attention to utility infrastructure. The building's history suggests regular maintenance and upgrading of essential systems, though recent issues regarding parking and some maintenance items warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 843-845 Dolores 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.
