Initial analysis

The property at 1100 Tennessee Street is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1890, containing 5 units, currently owned by Edward Elhauge and Pat Hoctel. The building's historical significance has been noted throughout its records, particularly in connection with several permit violations in 2007 regarding unpermitted installation of a glass entry door and signs. These violations, along with complaints about modern garage door replacement and unauthorized interior remodeling, were all eventually abated by 2010. The 2006-2008 period saw significant renovations, including the conversion of vacant office space to a cafe/restaurant with corresponding electrical upgrades, though one permit related to bathroom modifications expired without completion. More recent improvements include a 2012 upgrade of the fire suppression system to meet UL 300 standards, which was properly permitted.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural integrity, with basement ceiling support reinforcement (1993) and wall replacement work (1989 and 2005) being properly completed. The property has maintained active compliance with various city requirements, including obtaining necessary Certificates of Appropriateness for signage, doors, and an exhaust vent installation. Recent years have shown no major building violations or complaints directly related to the structure itself. While there have been several 311 calls in 2022, these primarily concerned parking issues and street maintenance matters rather than building-specific concerns. The only recorded fire incident was a false alarm, with no civilian injuries reported.

Risk rating

How 1100 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
85th percentile

Out of 74 buildings in this neighborhood, 11 are predicted to be safer.
