Initial analysis

This three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building located in Russian Hill was constructed in 1908 and is currently owned by Patrick Holsberry. The property has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the past decades, with the most recent major work being the comprehensive window replacement project approved in September 2024, involving the installation of energy-efficient windows across all three units with a total cost of $68,409. Other notable improvements include the legalization of partially below-grade finished rooms in Unit 2218 (2017), installation of a roof deck with internal spiral stair access (2012), and extensive electrical and plumbing upgrades in 2011-2013 which included kitchen and bathroom remodels, new appliances, and updated electrical systems.

The building has experienced some maintenance and safety issues in the past, most notably during a routine housing inspection in 2006 which identified several fire safety and gas utility concerns, including egress obstructions at fire escape stairs and the need for fire extinguishers. These violations were all abated by November 2006. More recent concerns include a sewage backup discharge incident from the side sewer vent in September 2024 and some flooding issues reported in January 2023. The property has also seen recurring issues with vehicles parking on the sidewalk in 2023, with multiple reports filed. Recent maintenance work has included addressing sidewalk defects (November 2024) and garbage collection services. The building's permit and complaint history shows regular maintenance and upgrades being performed, with all historical violations having been resolved.

Risk rating

How 2214-2218 Jones 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

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.

Building age

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

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.

12-Month severity forecast

Moderate concern 19.1%
Severe concern 31.8%
