Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 806-808 Russia Avenue, located in the Excelsior neighborhood, was built in 1947 and contains two units. The property has undergone several significant modifications and faced ongoing compliance issues in recent years. Most notably, there is an active building violation (filed March 2024) regarding unpermitted additions to the rear of the structure, including ground-level and first-floor rooms and a bathroom in the garage, which led to a Notice of Violation in July 2024 requiring the removal of all unpermitted work. While there had previously been an attempt to add bedrooms on both floors in 2018 (permit withdrawn), more recent permit activity shows a filed request in October 2024 for a 2-story addition (11ft x 14ft) valued at $62,000.

The building has seen significant infrastructure improvements, including a complete reroofing project in 2017 (completed, cost $45,000), installation of solar panels (two separate installations in October 2017) totaling 4.0 kW, and the addition of central air conditioning and furnace systems. Earlier improvements included vinyl siding installation in 2013 (cost $7,935) and historical reroofing work in 1992. The property has experienced multiple parking-related issues in the vicinity, with numerous 311 calls regarding sidewalk parking and driveway blocking between 2020 and 2024, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or compliance status. A complaint about illegal rear additions filed in March 2024 remains active, and there is a pending closure related to the failure to legalize rooms on the first floor and rear addition.

Risk rating

How 806-808 Russia Ave'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.
