Initial analysis

The property at 841 Rhode Island Street in Potrero Hill is a two-unit residential building constructed in 1979, currently owned by the Hengel-curletto Family Trust. This two-story flats and duplex structure has undergone several significant improvements over its lifetime, with the most recent major work being a roofing project completed in 2009 at a cost of $6,100. In 2005, the building received window upgrades throughout, with 16 windows being replaced at both the front and rear, as well as on the front and right sides, accompanied by sideling plywood installation at a cost of $12,000. An electrical improvement was made in 2002 with the installation of a garage door opener.

The building has experienced minimal issues over the past decade, with two documented 311 calls. In 2022, there was a report of a lifted sidewalk near the property, which was resolved without requiring any specific actions, and in 2017, there was a non-offensive graffiti incident on a sign that was promptly repaired or replaced. The property's planning records indicate past activity related to building modifications, including a second-story addition and front set-back variance, though these applications are now marked as closed.

Risk rating

How 841 Rhode Island 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

Out of 726 buildings in this neighborhood, 392 are predicted to be safer.
