AI summary

The 5-story, 17-unit apartment building at 2160-2168 Leavenworth St, built in 1928 and currently owned by Daryabi LLC, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, in 2022-2023, there were concerning reports of water damage and potential mold issues in the bedroom and living room of one unit (units 501) with walls described as warped and bubbly, alongside problems with an improperly vented dryer system that required multiple notices of violation before being addressed in July 2023. The building has a history of infrastructure maintenance work, including a $33,000 reroofing project in 2022 and various plumbing and electrical upgrades, such as backflow prevention device relocation in 2013, shower valve replacement in unit 202 in 2008, and electrical improvements in unit 5 in 2013.

Recent fire safety concerns include an open violation issued December 16, 2023, regarding sleeping area requirements, while previous violations from 2022 and 2017 related to sprinkler systems, electrical systems, and hazardous materials were found to have no merit. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural issues, with records of wall repairs and code compliance work going back to the 1980s. A total of 15 street cleaning and parking enforcement-related 311 calls were made in 2024, primarily concerning blocked driveways and garbage issues, though these are external to the building itself. The property has undergone various routine inspections and responded to multiple complaints, indicating active management engagement, though some historical complaints about backflow tagging (2001) and renovation dust control (2008) suggest occasional lapses in compliance with safety regulations.

Risk rating

How 2160-2168 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.
