Initial analysis

The property at 2881-2883 Jackson Street is a two-unit, four-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Wei Fmly 2002 Tr. The building underwent significant renovations in 2012-2013, including complete remodeling of both units with new bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry facilities, plus the installation of a comprehensive fire safety system featuring sprinklers, monitoring equipment, and a new 200-amp electrical service panel. In later years, improvements included sewer lateral work in 2016 and continued maintenance of utility systems.

The building's history includes some concerning incidents, particularly regarding unauthorized units. A third unit (2881A) was reportedly discovered in 2002, which had also been the subject of a 2010 complaint regarding illegal modifications and safety concerns related to kitchen fires. More recently, there has been a pattern of parking enforcement issues, with multiple complaints in 2023-2024 regarding blocked driveways. The property has experienced four documented fire-related incidents between 2023 and previous years, though none resulted in civilian injuries, and at least one was determined to be a false alarm. While the building management has made significant investments in safety systems and infrastructure improvements, these unauthorized unit issues and recent parking concerns suggest ongoing challenges with building regulation compliance and neighborhood access.

Risk rating

How 2881-2883 Jackson 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
84th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 154 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Number of floors

Building height affects maintenance complexity and is one of the size signals the model uses.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 77.7%
Moderate concern 14.1%
Severe concern 8.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
