Initial analysis

The two-family residential building at 696-698 Missouri Street in Potrero Hill, owned by the Misa Sakura Living Trust, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects since its construction in 1986. Most notably, there has been a recurring pattern of roof maintenance, with three documented reroofing projects (2005, 2018, and a cancelled permit in 2024) and siding upgrades completed in 2005. Recent inspection records indicate multiple garbage and debris incidents in late 2024, including several reports of abandoned refrigerator appliances and other waste materials on or near the property, though these were generally resolved promptly by city services.

The building's history includes some concerning safety events, most notably several building fires recorded between 2010 and 2011, with one incident in 2011 resulting in two civilian injuries, though most fire-related responses were for false alarms or other non-incident situations. The property has also experienced regulatory challenges, including a 1997 complaint about an unauthorized in-law unit and a 2010 incident involving an illegally constructed fence in the front setback, though both issues were resolved within a few weeks of being reported. Recent service calls from 2024 indicate ongoing property maintenance and neighborhood issues, including a currently open curb defect complaint from February 2024 and multiple garbage-related incidents, though these primarily relate to street and sidewalk conditions rather than building-specific problems. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and updating of building systems, with particular attention to roofing and exterior surfaces, suggesting ongoing property upkeep by current ownership.

Risk rating

How 696-698 Missouri 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.
