Initial analysis

The four-story, eight-unit apartment building at 2208-2222 Baker Street in Pacific Heights, owned by Michael & Michelle Rosinsky, has undergone several significant structural and safety improvements since 2016. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016 (cost: $40,000) to enhance seismic safety. In 2019, the building experienced a fire incident related to cooking that required substantial repairs to the kitchen area, including new drywall installation and plumbing work (cost: $50,000). Multiple building violations were recorded in 2015-2017, primarily related to fire safety systems including smoke detection and alarm systems, all of which were resolved by February 2016. The building has a history of water-related issues, with complaints and repairs documented between 2010-2017 concerning leaks, water damage, and mold, particularly affecting ceilings and interior surfaces.

More recent maintenance and safety work include kitchen rewiring following the 2019 fire, and various building improvements such as repairing non-visible exterior siding in 2019. The building's systems have been periodically upgraded, including installation of a wall furnace in 2008 and a washer/dryer/water heater closet in 2005. While the building has experienced multiple fire alarm activations (often due to malfunction rather than actual fires), there have been no reported civilian injuries from these incidents. The property has maintained compliance with regular housing inspections, though some historical complaints regarding maintenance issues, particularly related to water damage and interior surfaces, have been recorded. The most recent building-related issues appear to be focusing on exterior maintenance and parking concerns, as evidenced by multiple 2024 service requests related to street use and parking enforcement.

Risk rating

How 2208-2222 Baker 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
