Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2149-2151 Grove Street, located in San Francisco's Park North neighborhood, was constructed in 1908 and is currently owned by Tikhonova Olga & Severinov. The property underwent significant renovations in 2014, including a complete reroofing project costing $16,000 ($8,000 for each building), the creation of a new rear roof deck with access stairs, relocation of kitchens in both units, and substantial electrical and plumbing upgrades. The electrical system received major improvements with the installation of two 60-amp subpanels, while the plumbing work included replacing galvanized pipes with copper and relocating three water heaters. These renovations were necessary to comply with a physical inspection report (CC-7338). A street space permit was issued in April 2014, and there was one building complaint filed in February 2014 regarding construction-related damage to an adjacent building's stucco, though this complaint is no longer active.

More recent history of the property shows a pattern of parking enforcement issues, with multiple citations issued in 2024 for vehicles blocking driveways, particularly between January and August 2024, though several of these cases resulted in "Unable to Locate" responses. In addition, there was one construction-related complaint in April 2020 regarding work on nearby buildings, but this case is also no longer active. The property has undergone proper condo conversion procedures, with records showing approved applications for raising the first and second floors to install off-street parking, along with various interior renovations. The building's major systems were upgraded comprehensively in 2014, including electrical distribution, plumbing infrastructure, and the installation of modern safety features such as smoke detectors.

Risk rating

How 2149-2151 Grove 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.
