Initial analysis

The property at 2849-2851 Harrison Street is a two-unit, two-story residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, owned by the Albert C Flores Family Trust and constructed in 1914. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past two decades. Most notably, there are three active building violations from 2018 related to general dilapidation, weatherproofing problems, and a broken glass window pane. These violations follow a pattern of documented maintenance issues from previously inactive violations in 2004-2007, which included problems with heating systems, plumbing fixtures, and security concerns.

Recent history shows ongoing concerns about construction practices, with a complaint filed in 2020 regarding after-hours power tool use, though this case was marked as not active in 2022. A 2018 complaint about an extension cord to a portable toilet remains active as of this report's preparation. The building has required multiple street space permits between 2019-2020, though these were for minimal costs presumably related to temporary street usage. Historical records also show electrical work completed in 2005, involving light installation, switch, and receptacle work. Recent activity at the property has generated various municipal service calls, including for parking violations, sewage issues, and infrastructure maintenance needs, with the most recent being a sidewalk parking enforcement call in March 2023.

Risk rating

How 2849-2851 Harrison 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 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 167 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

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 70.2%
Moderate concern 20.2%
Severe concern 9.6%
