Initial analysis

The property at 3145-3149 Mission St is a 3-story multi-family residential building with 5 units, built in 1900 and currently owned by Kevin A Colaco and Kr Sherman. The building has undergone several significant renovations and faced various compliance issues over the years. In 2007, the ground floor underwent a commercial conversion from retail to restaurant, including substantial electrical and plumbing upgrades. A critical compliance issue arose in 2000 when the building was found to have been converted from three apartments to operate as a 12-room tourist hostel without proper permits, leading to multiple safety violation notices for unapproved construction, missing fire protections, and inadequate smoke detection systems. These violations were later addressed and abated in 2008, along with other housing code violations related to walls, egress obstructions, and stair repairs.

More recent concerns include tenant complaints from 2019 regarding improper BBQ exhaust installation and drainage issues in the building's easement area, though these matters were subsequently marked as not active. The property has maintained basic upkeep, with permits showing reroofing work completed in 2014 and various repairs to address building maintenance needs. Recent 311 calls (2024-2025) have primarily concerned external matters like sidewalk parking, graffiti, and waste disposal, though these issues appear to be routine rather than structural or safety-related. The building has received various street space and sidewalk permits, and most construction work has been properly permitted, with only minor exceptions noted in historical complaints.

Risk rating

How 3145-3149 Mission 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.
