Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 3769 Cesar Chavez Street in Noe Valley, owned by Daniel A Sullivan & Arbeloa, has undergone significant improvements since its construction in 1986. Most notably, in 2015-2016, the property underwent substantial renovations including the legalization of an unwarranted unit, interior remodels of kitchens and bathrooms, facade beautification, and safety upgrades such as the installation of 19 sprinkler heads throughout the ground floor. The building received comprehensive utility updates during this period, including gas meter relocations, heater replacements, electrical panel upgrades, and the installation of new wiring and fixtures.

The property has experienced some maintenance issues over the years, particularly with sewer systems, as evidenced by three sewage backup incidents reported in late 2015, though these were all marked as resolved. More recent concerns include a pavement defect reported in April 2022, which remains open. The building's safety features have been substantially improved in recent years, with the addition of smoke detectors and sprinkler systems. Historical records show earlier improvements including reroofing work completed in 1998 and various electrical upgrades in 2014.

Risk rating

How 3769 Cesar Chavez 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
