Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1332 Castro Street in Noe Valley, owned by the Kabajouzian Family Trust, was constructed in 1903 and contains three units, with current use as flats and duplexes. The property's historical records reveal a varied use history, originally functioning as a restaurant since 1982, with significant renovations including a bar/restaurant area modification in 1989 and kitchen updates. Recent improvements include a fire safety system installation in 2018, electrical panel upgrades in 2017, and various maintenance work, though a 2001 reroofing permit remains expired.

The building's recent maintenance record shows a sewage backup issue in October 2023 that has been resolved, and multiple street cleaning requests were addressed throughout 2023. There are currently two open cases from October 2023 regarding graffiti on the parklet and a structure barricade. Historical permits show various improvements and modifications over the years, including lighting enhancements in 1984 and compliance work in 1985. The property is currently permitted for a Type 41 ABC License as part of its continuing restaurant use ("Hamano Sushi"), subject to specific operating conditions. While the building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, the recent sewage issue and current graffiti concerns may warrant attention, though most recent service requests have been promptly resolved.

Risk rating

How 1332 Castro 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.
