Initial analysis

The 4165-4167 26th Street property, located in San Francisco's Noe Valley neighborhood, is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by the Jean Nagatomi Bypass Trust. The building's maintenance history shows several significant infrastructure updates, including two documented roofing projects (1989 and 2004) and a foundation replacement in 2007, though the latter permit ultimately expired. A notable complaint was filed in April 2020 regarding non-essential construction inside the building, accompanied by reports of plywood usage, though this complaint is currently listed as not active.

The property has experienced recurring parking-related issues in recent years, with multiple reports of driveway blockages and sidewalk parking between 2020 and 2024, including incidents involving vehicles such as a Toyota Camry, Lexus, Chevy, and Dodge Ram. These enforcement actions were generally resolved through citations or official responses, with one parking enforcement case being closed due to the officer's inability to locate the vehicle. There were also two building inspection complaints filed in April 2020, which were transferred for further tracking and investigation. In terms of recent activity, most incidents have been parking-related, with the most recent case recorded in June 2024 regarding sidewalk parking, though no violations were confirmed in this instance. The building's permit history suggests regular maintenance of critical systems, though it's worth noting that some permits have expired without recorded completion, such as the 2004 reroofing and 2007 foundation work.

Risk rating

How 4165-4167 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.
