Initial analysis

The property at 3370 26th Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission district is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Romero Maben. The building has a contentious history regarding unit legality and habitability, with several significant complaints documented over the years. Most alarmingly, a 1997 complaint reported serious safety and habitability issues in what appears to be an unauthorized lower unit, including inadequate fire safety features, plumbing problems involving sewage discharge, and pest infestations. While there were attempts to address unit legalization through a 1988 permit application, that effort was ultimately cancelled. Two related complaints were filed in late 2001 regarding a suspected illegal unit, though these were resolved relatively quickly.

More recent history from 2023 to 2024 shows persistent maintenance and sanitation challenges. There have been multiple incidents requiring attention to garbage and debris on the property, with eight documented cases between May 2023 and January 2025, including several reports of sewage discharge issues in August 2024. A November 2023 report of graffiti on the building remains open, marking it as the most recent unresolved issue. The building's age and documented history of plumbing and sanitation problems suggest ongoing maintenance challenges, though the most recent complaints mostly pertain to exterior cleaning and debris issues rather than internal habitability concerns.

Risk rating

How 3370 26Th 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.
