Initial analysis

The 435-437 Tehama Street property is a two-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building located in the South of Market neighborhood, built in 1911 and currently owned by Heath & Mercedes Hoglund Lv. The building has a documented history of maintenance and repairs spanning several decades, with significant attention to structural elements such as stairs and termite damage. Most recently, in 2016, the property underwent kitchen and bathroom cabinet replacements at a cost of $12,000. A notable series of violations and complaints occurred in 2011, including issues with stairs, handrails, and dryer vents, which were subsequently addressed through necessary repairs. The building has also faced fire safety concerns, with violations related to sprinkler systems and unapproved assembly use in 2017 and 2020, though these were either corrected or abated.

Recent activity at the property has been primarily related to external maintenance rather than building safety issues. The most recent fire safety violation from 2020 regarding sprinkler system maintenance was abated, and there have been multiple 311 calls in late 2024 primarily concerning street cleaning and parking enforcement. The building's historical repairs include termite remediation in 1993, reroofing in 1990, and various structural improvements in 1989, demonstrating ongoing maintenance efforts over the years. The property has experienced recurring issues with garbage and debris in the vicinity, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in recent months, though these are street-related matters rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 435-437 Tehama 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
62th percentile

Out of 430 buildings in this neighborhood, 163 are predicted to be safer.

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.

Number of units

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

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 57.1%
Moderate concern 27.6%
Severe concern 15.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
