Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 2021-2025 Oak Street in the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, owned by Golden Properties LLC, was constructed in 1900 and has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance activities over the years. Notable improvements include a comprehensive $32,000 renovation in 2001 that converted a bedroom into a bathroom and walk-in closet, remodeled an existing bathroom, and replaced kitchen cabinets and appliances. The building has also experienced several safety and compliance issues, particularly regarding fire safety, with multiple violations noted during routine inspections in 2003 and 2006, including problems with fire escape ladders, fire proofing materials, stair repairs, and the need for proper fire extinguisher installation. These violations were subsequently abated by November 2006.

More recent history shows a pattern of fire safety concerns, with multiple fire alarm system-related violations recorded in 2010, though these were marked as corrected. The building has experienced several fire-related incidents, including false alarms, smoke detector activations, and even a cooking fire and gas leak incident, all of which fortunately resulted in no civilian injuries. Recent 311 calls from January 2025 indicate ongoing neighborhood challenges, including reports of encampments and garbage/debris issues in the vicinity, though these are external to the building itself. The property's maintenance history shows regular attention to infrastructure needs, including reroofing work in 2001 and electrical system upgrades in 2004 with an underground conversion of the existing 100-amp service.

Risk rating

How 2021-2025 Oak 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
32th percentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 395 are predicted to be safer.

DBI complaint rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building complaint rate across the owner's portfolio.

DBI complaints, owner's portfolio

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

Building age

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

Severe concern 9.0%
