AI summary

The Sanchez-Renteria Family Trust property at 3292-3294 Folsom Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, located in the Bernal Heights neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and repair works over the years, with the most recent being a completed $28,000 reroofing project in April 2024, following a $3,000 reroofing project in 2009. Notable past repairs include a $20,000 project in 2005 addressing dry rot damage in walls and roof, as well as foundation issues in a rear storage shed. The property has experienced recurring sewer issues, with multiple sewage backup incidents documented through 311 calls between 2022 and 2023, suggesting potential ongoing plumbing infrastructure challenges. Historical complaints from 1996-2002 indicate past concerns with hazardous conditions, including accumulations of flammable materials in an abandoned rear structure, damaged floor surfaces, and transient habitation in a back shack, though these issues appear to have been resolved. Recent infrastructure concerns include water service interruptions due to a water main break in October 2024, and there are multiple historical records of roof maintenance, sidewalk repairs, and plumbing work that indicate regular upkeep of the property. The building has no active violations or pending complaints as of the latest available data, though the pattern of sewer issues and the relatively recent need for roof replacement suggest continued attention to building systems may be warranted.

Risk rating

How 3292-3294 Folsom 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
76th percentile

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 306 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.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 54.4%
Moderate concern 21.3%
Severe concern 24.4%
