Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 2651-2653 Leavenworth Street in Russian Hill, owned by the Maria C Hoy Revocable Trust, was constructed in 1950 and contains two units. The property has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance projects over the past decades, with the most recent major work occurring in 2019 when a comprehensive remodeling of the second-floor unit (2651) was completed, including updates to the bathroom, kitchen, laundry facilities, and the addition of a half bathroom - accompanied by corresponding electrical and plumbing upgrades costing $50,000. The building has a documented history of addressing dry rot issues, with multiple repairs carried out between 2006 and 2010, affecting areas such as the garage door header, bay window beams, and sheathing. Other structural improvements include reroofing work completed in 2010 (cost: $8,500) and the installation of new vinyl windows in the rooftop penthouse.

The property has experienced recurring issues with parked vehicles blocking the driveway, with seven documented incidents between 2016 and 2024, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or safety. Two tree-related incidents were reported, one in 2023 involving a fallen tree (currently open in progress) and another in 2015 regarding property damage. The building has maintained compliance with various city regulations, with all major permits having been completed successfully. While the dry rot repairs from 2006-2010 suggest historical water-related maintenance challenges, there have been no recent documented structural concerns. The property's most recent improvements, particularly the 2019 unit remodeling, indicate ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts by the current ownership.

Risk rating

How 2651-2653 Leavenworth 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.
