Initial analysis

The property at 2680-2682 Lombard Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in Cow Hollow, constructed in 1940 and currently owned by John & Aiko Desouza 2015 Family Trust. The building has a complex maintenance history with several significant events, most notably an active building complaint from November 2016 regarding unauthorized third unit conversion, which led to multiple permit applications and a housing violation. Major renovations have occurred over the years, including a complete kitchen and bathroom remodel in 2019 ($30,000), and multiple infrastructure upgrades such as the installation of tankless water heaters, new furnaces, and electrical rewiring in 2019. The property has experienced several fire safety issues, with violations noted for sleeping area requirements (December 2023), alarm systems, blocked exits (2021), and general hazardous materials (2017), though most have been corrected. Recent maintenance has included window replacement in 2007, roofing work in 2015, and various unit improvements, though there have been recurring issues with unauthorized short-term rentals, noise complaints, and building violations. The building's history shows a pattern of responding to violations and upgrade requirements, though some recent concerns remain open, particularly the sleeping area requirements violation from December 2023 and the active 2016 building complaint regarding unit conversion.

Risk rating

How 2680-2682 Lombard 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.
