Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 24-26 Retiro Way in the Marina neighborhood, constructed in 1929, is currently undergoing substantial renovations as evidenced by multiple active building permits. Most notably, a major interior remodel process initiated in July 2023, with an estimated cost of $609,000, encompasses work on both units across three floors, including kitchen and bathroom upgrades, window modifications, and garage door reconfigurations. This project has seen several revisions, the most recent in December 2024, which reduced the scope of new construction elements and focused on electrical and HVAC updates. The building has received significant infrastructure upgrades recently, including complete plumbing system installation across multiple fixtures and systems in April 2024, full rewiring and service upgrade in February 2024, and a 200-amp service installation in 2020.

Historical maintenance records show attention to structural elements, with a back staircase repair in 2014 due to rotting wood, and various window replacements to comply with inspection requirements. The property has experienced recurring issues with sidewalk conditions, with two recent complaints in 2024 regarding lifted sidewalks adjacent to the property. Multiple parking enforcement actions have been documented in recent years, particularly in 2022, suggesting ongoing challenges with driveway access. Tree maintenance was performed in 2017, and there were minor issues regarding waste receptacle management in 2020. The building's renovation history includes various proposed improvements, such as a roof deck addition (approved in 2022) and kitchen remodeling, though some permits, like the one from 2022, were withdrawn. The property has not experienced any significant fire-related incidents beyond a system malfunction notification.

Risk rating

How 24-26 Retiro Way'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
98th percentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 20 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.

Building age

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

Owner identity matched

The model matched this owner to a portfolio of properties across SF.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 92.4%
Moderate concern 5.9%
Severe concern 1.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
