Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 733-735 Minna Street, owned by Minna LLC, was constructed in 1916 and contains three units. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and safety-related interventions over the past few decades, with the most recent major work being a reroofing project completed in 2018 at a cost of $8,500. The building has faced multiple compliance issues, particularly regarding lead paint hazards, as documented in 2016, when violations were recorded for both peeling exterior paint and interior surfaces, though these were abated by June 2016. Safety concerns have been documented through various complaints and violations, including a 2021 incident involving unauthorized window bars on the second floor that reportedly impeded emergency egress, and multiple 2011 violations related to fire safety and security requirements, such as the need for self-closing doors and proper fire extinguishers.

Recent activity around the building, particularly in late 2024, shows recurring issues with street cleanliness and urban maintenance challenges, including multiple reports of human waste and debris on public sidewalks. There were also reports regarding sidewalk defects in December 2024, though no actionable conditions were found upon inspection. The property has maintained regular building inspections over the years, with documented routine inspections in 1999, 2007, and health and safety inspections in 2011, which addressed various maintenance and safety requirements. While past violations and complaints indicate some ongoing maintenance challenges, many of the historical safety issues have been resolved, though the building's immediate vicinity currently experiences significant urban cleanliness challenges as evidenced by recent 311 calls.

Risk rating

How 733-735 Minna 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.
