Initial analysis

The six-story, 57-unit multi-family residential building at 2201 Laguna Street in Pacific Heights, owned by Wyz Laguna LP, was constructed in 1969 and has undergone several significant updates and faced various challenges over the years. Most recently, in 2024-2025, the building is undergoing important fire safety upgrades, including a comprehensive fire system replacement with new control panel, smoke detectors, and low-frequency sounders, with work continuing into early 2025. The building has experienced recurring issues with water damage, as evidenced by multiple complaints and repair work, including a 2019 repair of water leaks on the south wall and window replacement, and historical complaints dating back to 1996 and 1994 regarding leaks and moisture problems.

The property has faced several building violations, particularly in 2010 when multiple issues were cited, including water damage, heating system failures, and various interior surface problems, though these were all abated by April 2010. More recently, there have been two open fire violations regarding sleeping area requirements, with the most recent issued in September 2024. The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure needs, including a 2017 re-roofing project and electrical work in 2003 to power the elevator and install lighting. While there have been several fire-related incidents recorded (mostly false alarms or system activations), none have resulted in civilian injuries, and routine fire safety inspections and corrections demonstrate the owner's response to safety compliance requirements. The building's recent activity suggests ongoing efforts to maintain and upgrade safety systems, though the presence of open fire violations indicates some regulatory compliance work remains in progress.

Risk rating

How 2201 Laguna 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
4th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 924 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 12.9%
Moderate concern 78.4%
Severe concern 8.6%
