Initial analysis

This 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located at 2222-2226 Vallejo Street in Pacific Heights has undergone several significant renovations since its construction in 1927. The property, currently owned by Wayne Wingleong Lew & Vivia, has seen major improvements to its infrastructure and living spaces over the years, including a comprehensive kitchen remodel in 2005 (valued at $50,000) featuring new cabinets, lighting, and plumbing, along with bathroom renovations addressing dry rot issues. The building underwent electrical system upgrades in 2007, including a 200-amp meter main upgrade and the installation of a 32-panel solar PV system with batteries, demonstrating efforts towards modernization and sustainability.

The property's history reveals some concerning events, particularly during a cluster of incidents in 2004-2005, including multiple building violations related to water damage, fire safety issues (such as fire extinguisher maintenance), and security concerns that were all addressed by September 2004. There were also several complaints about unauthorized construction work, including an allegedly illegal front deck, basement unit, and bathroom over lightwell, though these issues appeared to be resolved. A routine housing inspection in 2011 showed no active violations. More recently, there have been two documented fire alarm activations in 2021, though neither resulted in confirmed fires or civilian injuries. The building's exterior and surrounding area has experienced typical urban issues as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in recent years regarding street cleaning, waste removal, and sidewalk maintenance, though these are external to the building's actual structure and systems. A fire escape issue was noted in late 2018 but was corrected by April 2019, indicating responsive maintenance to safety systems when needed.

Risk rating

How 2222-2226 Vallejo 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
