Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 664-666 29th St in Noe Valley, constructed in 1910, has undergone several significant renovations and faced some notable maintenance challenges over its history. The property has experienced three documented fire safety issues since 2017, including a blocked exit (2017), sprinkler/standpipe system concerns (2021), and most recently, alarm system problems (2023-2024) which were resolved in January 2024. The building has undergone several major improvements, including a kitchen remodel in 2008 that featured new cabinetry, appliances, and lighting, and more substantial work in the late 1980s involving fire roof repairs, foundation repair, and the addition of a bathroom and closet in the attic. Earlier repairs addressed dry rot issues and included a significant reroofing project in 2011 costing $16,525.

Recent activity around the property has primarily involved parking enforcement and street maintenance issues, with multiple reports of abandoned vehicles and driveway blockages in 2023-2024. There was a water leak incident reported in February 2024 that was resolved by staff. The building’s fire alarm system issues in late 2023-2024 and the blocked exit incident in 2017 suggest that maintaining clear egress routes and ensuring fire safety systems are functioning properly has been an ongoing concern. The property also experienced some structural challenges in its early years, as evidenced by the foundation repair work required in 1989 and the dry rot remediation in 1998.

Risk rating

How 664-666 29Th 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.
