Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 1049 Tennessee Street is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900 and currently owned by Pavlina Ecclesiarchou since 2002. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent being substantial modernization work in 2016-2017 including window replacements in kitchen, office, and dining areas, as well as a complete electrical service upgrade to 200 amp capacity and installation of a 6 kW solar system with 20 PV modules. Earlier structural improvements included a voluntary seismic upgrade in 1995 involving plywood panels and insulation of northwest walls, though an earlier foundation strengthening permit from 1990 was cancelled. The building's maintenance history shows attention to infrastructure with a sewer repair conducted in 2007 and street space/sidewalk repairs initiated that same year.

The property has experienced various external challenges as documented in 311 calls, particularly in 2018 when there were multiple parking-related incidents including reports of sidewalk parking and abandoned vehicles. The building's surroundings have faced typical urban issues such as graffiti, waste, and encampments, though these incidents have generally been resolved through appropriate channels. A sidewalk defect was reported in January 2021 but was investigated with no conditions found requiring action. The most recent interaction with city services was in December 2024 regarding a temporary moving sign request, which remains open as of the latest available data.

Risk rating

How 1049 Tennessee 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 74 buildings in this neighborhood, 41 are predicted to be safer.
