Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 3208 25th Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Kuo Shih-hsiung Chen Rei-pi, was constructed in 1900 and contains 5 units with a commercial space on the ground floor. The property has undergone several significant infrastructure improvements over recent years, including barrier removal for accessibility compliance in 2022 (with a related ABE program technical infeasibility request), a new 400-amp electrical service installation in 2011, and the correction of compressor flexes in the same year. A residential ventilation hood was installed without proper permits in 2022, though this issue was quickly resolved within nine days of being reported.

Historical maintenance records show consistent attention to basic infrastructure, with documented roof replacements in 1989, 1992, and 2007 (costing $27,000), gas line installations in 2014, and repairs to dry-rotten wood in the rear stairway in 2000. The building experienced some code violations in 2000 related to egress obstruction and stair repairs, which were all abated by July 18, 2000. Multiple routine housing inspections have been conducted over the years, including one in 2015, with most issues being promptly addressed. Recent activity around the property (2023-2024) has primarily involved street-level concerns such as graffiti, debris, and parking issues, which are being handled by appropriate city agencies and are not direct indicators of building condition.

Risk rating

How 3208 25Th 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

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 1428 are predicted to be safer.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 30.9%
Moderate concern 47.2%
Severe concern 21.9%
