Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 219 Lily Street in Hayes Valley, owned by Lakes-schulz Fmly Tr, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1946. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, most notably in 2008 when 22 windows were replaced with energy-efficient wood clad aluminum windows at a cost of $23,800, and in 2021 when the sewer system received necessary repairs. Earlier maintenance work included a roofing project completed in 2004 with an estimated cost of $6,000.

The property has experienced recurring issues with sidewalk parking violations, with three documented incidents between 2021-2024, two of which resulted in citations being issued. There appears to have been a concentrated period of street cleaning concerns in September 2018, with four separate reports of loose garbage recorded in quick succession. More recent incidents in late 2021 involved reports of loose garbage and human/animal waste on the street, all of which were resolved by the Department of Public Works. The most recent documented incident was a sidewalk parking violation in June 2024 that resulted in a citation. The building's maintenance record shows attention to major infrastructure updates, though the frequency of street cleaning complaints in 2018 and periodic parking violations suggest ongoing external maintenance challenges in the immediate vicinity.

Risk rating

How 219 Lily 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.
