Initial analysis

The 3047-3049 26th Street property in San Francisco's Inner Mission is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1921, currently owned by Virginia V Lopez. The building underwent significant renovations in 2009, including comprehensive updates to two bathrooms and two kitchens across different units, accompanied by substantial electrical work involving the installation of new wiring, receptacles, lighting, and subpanels, all of which were properly completed. However, the property has experienced persistent issues with its ground floor commercial space, which has been vacant for several years. This has led to multiple complaints between 2021 and 2023 regarding the storefront's derelict condition, including exposed plywood panels, graffiti, and concerns about potential structural problems following damage noted in December 2022. Most recently, the building received a notice in March 2023 related to non-compliance with the vacant commercial storefront ordinance, though this was abated by May 2023.

The property has experienced ongoing maintenance challenges in recent years, with multiple 311 calls between 2024-2025 regarding garbage and debris issues, including reports of human waste and sidewalk defects that are still open and accepted as of September 2024. A notable building violation from 2009 was filed regarding work completed beyond the scope of the permitted renovation project, though this is now considered not active. The most recent permitted work on record before 2023 was related to the 2009 renovations, and historical records show an expired permit for reroofing work from 1998. A power line incident was recorded near the property, though no civilian injuries were reported. While the building has undergone some modernization, particularly in 2009, the recent history suggests ongoing challenges with both the commercial and residential aspects of the property, particularly regarding maintenance and compliance with city ordinances.

Risk rating

How 3047-3049 26Th 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.
