Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2225-2229 Steiner Street in Pacific Heights, owned by SFSteiner LLC, has undergone significant renovations since 2015-2017, including comprehensive updates to its fire safety systems and unit amenities. The 1914 four-story structure underwent major improvements in 2015-2016, with the installation of a new fire alarm system, complete electrical overhaul, and comprehensive plumbing upgrades including new furnaces, tankless water heaters, and other modern appliances for all units. The renovation project included delicate modifications to the building layout, such as relocating powder rooms, mechanical rooms, and washer/dryer facilities across all units, as well as window replacements.

The building's recent history has shown a strong focus on safety and modernization, though there were some construction-related issues in late 2016 with noise complaints from neighbors during renovation work. Earlier building violations from 2002, which included multiple fire safety concerns such as combustible storage and staircase repairs, were all properly addressed and abated by May 2002. A minor fire alarm issue was reported in early 2020 but was promptly corrected within three weeks. The most recent building modifications included the addition of two new planters as part of a minor encroachment project, completed in 2017. Current records indicate no active violations or complaints, and all major systems have been updated to meet modern safety standards.

Risk rating

How 2225-2229 Steiner 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
66th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 327 are predicted to be safer.

Building size

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

Number of floors

Building height affects maintenance complexity and is one of the size signals the model uses.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.
