Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 730 Chenery Street in Glen Park, owned by Kenneth F. and Wendy L. Jones, has a history of significant modifications since its 1924 construction. Most notably, in 2002, there was a substantial project to convert the building from a two-family dwelling to a single-family home, which included the addition of a master bathroom on the top floor and involved electrical work for kitchen and bathroom remodeling, though the building's exterior dimensions remained unchanged. Subsequent improvements included a 2012 project replacing aluminum siding and windows with wood alternatives, and two new rear wood decks were proposed in 2004 at a cost of $36,000. The building has undergone various maintenance work including reroofing in 1996, retaining wall and foundation repairs in 1987, and deck improvements in the late 1980s.

More recent activity around the property shows several maintenance and service calls, with the most recent incidents in 2024 involving graffiti removal from the sidewalk and construction equipment temporarily blocking the sidewalk. A construction noise complaint was filed and resolved in July 2020, along with a pavement defect issue related to construction activity that same year. The property underwent some maintenance challenges in recent years including a fire complaint in 2020 that was resolved within four months. The building's permit and service call history suggests regular maintenance and improvements, though some permitted work, such as the 2004 deck installation and 1987 remodeling/repair work, shows as expired or cancelled in the records.

Risk rating

How 730 Chenery 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
