Initial analysis

The 832 Dolores Street property is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Illuminarium LLC. The building's most significant period of concern occurred in 2002-2003 when a routine housing inspection revealed multiple building and fire safety violations, including obstructed egress, stair repairs needed, lead paint hazards, fire extinguisher maintenance issues, fire proofing deficiencies, combustible storage concerns, and a broken window pane. All these violations were officially abated by September 24, 2003, following the issuance of multiple Notices of Violation and Final Warning Letters between June and September 2002. The building has undergone several infrastructure improvements, including an electrical service upgrade in 2004 (200A, 6 meters) and reroofing in 2005 at a cost of $13,000.

More recent history shows routine inspections in 1995-1996, including heating system complaints and concerns about unauthorized garage business use. A smoke-related incident was recorded, though no civilian injuries were reported. Recent external issues have primarily involved parking concerns, with multiple citations for sidewalk parking and driveway blocking between 2022 and 2024. The most recent building-related interactions have been limited to temporary parking sign requests in 2013, though a general public works complaint was filed in October 2023. While the building has had its share of maintenance and safety concerns in the past, particularly during the early 2000s, there have been no significant violations recorded in recent years, and all historical violations have been formally resolved.

Risk rating

How 832 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.

Neighborhood percentile
