Initial analysis

The Ortiz Family Trust owns this two-unit multi-family residential building located at 2424 Chestnut Street in the Marina neighborhood. Built in 1927, this two-story flats and duplex structure has undergone several significant maintenance and infrastructure upgrades over the past 15 years. Most notably, in 2018, the building received a substantial electrical upgrade, increasing its meter capacity from 125A to 200A with an underground installation, and in 2017, a complete reroofing project was completed at a cost of $20,000. The building's infrastructure was further improved in 2009 with the replacement of the sidewalk sewer system.

Recent months have seen numerous reports regarding the immediate vicinity of the building, particularly in 2023-2024. These include multiple incidents involving garbage and debris (including furniture and bagged garbage), graffiti on the commercial section of the building, and several instances of human or animal waste on or near the property. Street cleaning issues have been a recurring theme, with at least nine cleaning-related complaints recorded between late 2022 and 2024. While these matters primarily concern the public areas around the building rather than the building itself, they may impact the overall environment around the property. The building's permit and maintenance history suggests proper attention to major systems and structural elements, with the most recent significant work being the 2018 electrical upgrade and 2017 roofing project.

Risk rating

How 2424 Chestnut 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

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 356 are predicted to be safer.
