Initial analysis

The three-story, 9-unit multi-family residential building at 2663 California Street, owned by Rc Amore Realtors LLC, was constructed in 1913 in the Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, there was an urgent complaint in December 2022 regarding mold infestation affecting tenant health, particularly concerning a young child, though this complaint is listed as not active. In July-August 2023, the building faced plumbing code violations involving basement water heater venting, unsupported gas and water piping, and safety valve discharge issues, which have since been corrected. The summer of 2023 also saw multiple improvements including a kitchen remodel and the installation of a hydronic wall heater for Apartment #1, along with the addition of new electrical circuits and outlets for a kitchenette.

The building's electrical and safety systems have undergone various upgrades and repairs over the years, including a major electrical gear replacement project in 2017-2019 involving nine meters and service upgrades, though the initial permit expired and required renewal. Fire safety systems have been a recurring focus, with multiple fire alarm system complaints (most recently in July 2024) and several false alarms or system malfunctions recorded over the years, though all were marked as having no civilian injuries and most were resolved promptly. Historical issues include extensive plaster cracking, dry rot, and bathroom damage documented in 1999, and there have been routine safety inspections conducted in 1999 and 2013. The property has maintained compliance with most regulatory requirements, though some past violations and complaints suggest ongoing maintenance challenges. Recent building improvements and the prompt resolution of recent violations indicate active management of the property, particularly regarding immediate safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 2663 California 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.
