Initial analysis

The property at 2147-2149 Golden Gate Avenue is a 2-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located in the Park North neighborhood, constructed in 1900 and classified as a Flats & Duplex building. The current owner is Tom Roger. The building's maintenance history shows a reroofing project from 1995, though this permit has since expired. More recently, there have been multiple parking-related incidents in the immediate vicinity, particularly involving vehicles blocking driveways, with three separate incidents involving the same gray Toyota Camry between January 24-25, 2024, and another driveway blocking incident involving a black Jeep in December 2023. The pattern of parking violations extends back through several years, with documented cases of vehicles parking on the sidewalk in 2022 and 2021, though enforcement responses were often unable to locate the violating vehicles.

Other incidents requiring municipal attention include a missing side sewer vent cover reported in February 2022, which was subsequently addressed by the Department of Public Works, and a street cleaning issue involving waste reported and resolved in January 2021. The property owner has applied for a moving temporary sign request for May 29, 2021, which remains listed as open in the system. Additionally, there is a current UDU screening consultation noted in the planning records under the address 2147 Golden Gate Avenue. While the building's documented history shows regular maintenance issues typical of its age, the most significant recent concerns have been related to parking violations in the surrounding area.

Risk rating

How 2147-2149 Golden Gate Ave'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 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 247 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 78.6%
Moderate concern 13.9%
Severe concern 7.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
