Initial analysis

The three-story, multi-family residential building at 72 Monterey Blvd in Glen Park, owned by Tsg Family Trust, was constructed in 1910 and contains two units. The property has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past two decades, with the most substantial work occurring in 2013-2014. Major projects included the legalization of ground level spaces, addition of bathrooms, kitchen and bathroom remodels on the third floor, and extension of the front staircase. These improvements occurred in response to building complaints, including issues with an unauthorized conversion of garage spaces and excavation work. The property has also benefitted from several safety upgrades, including a solar PV system installation in 2014 and foundation reinforcement work completed in 2013. Historical records show previous renovations dating back to 2002, including a front room extension and various bathroom improvements.

Recent maintenance and service issues in the vicinity of the building have been documented through 311 calls, particularly in 2024, with reports of graffiti, sidewalk cleaning needs, and tree maintenance requests. While these exterior maintenance issues are not directly related to the building's structure or systems, they do impact the overall neighborhood environment. The building's permit history shows regular inspections and compliance with city requirements, though there were two notable complaints regarding work performed beyond the scope of issued permits, both of which were abated in 2014. The property has maintained its multi-family residential classification throughout its history, with no recorded violations of zoning or land use regulations.

Risk rating

How 72 Monterey Blvd'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 364 buildings in this neighborhood, 218 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 85.0%
Moderate concern 9.8%
Severe concern 5.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
