Initial analysis

The property at 2280-2282 Golden Gate Avenue in the Lone Mountain neighborhood is a two-story, two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1964, currently owned by the Margaret George 1992 Trust. The building has undergone significant renovations in recent years, with the most recent work focusing on bathroom improvements, including a 2024 revision to remodel a guest bathroom on the second floor (cost: $20,000), following major bathroom and kitchen renovations in 2023-2024 totaling over $175,000. These improvements included the remodeling of multiple bathrooms, kitchen updates, and the installation of new fixtures throughout the building. The property has also seen substantial system upgrades, including an HVAC changeout to a ducted split heat pump in 2023, electrical rewiring throughout new bathrooms and kitchen, and the installation of safety features such as new smoke detectors.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure, with a roof replacement completed in 2013 and a 2021 kitchen remodeling project that included electrical panel upgrades and appliance installations. The property's recent history includes multiple parking enforcement issues, particularly regarding driveway blockages, with numerous citations issued between 2023-2024. There were also two incidents of graffiti reported in 2023, one on a fire hydrant and another on a mailbox, though these were minor public property issues and not directly related to the building itself. The building appears to be well-maintained, with regular updates to keep systems modern and compliant, though prospective tenants should be aware of the ongoing nature of recent renovations and associated activities.

Risk rating

How 2280-2282 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
99th percentile

Out of 519 buildings in this neighborhood, 5 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 size

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

Building age

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

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 90.9%
Moderate concern 6.3%
Severe concern 2.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
