Initial analysis

The property at 190-192 2nd Avenue, located in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood, is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1922, containing three units and currently owned by the Sun Jim Lee Bypass Trust. The building underwent significant interior improvements in early 2009, particularly on the third floor of unit 190, which included the installation of a new full bathroom, kitchen and bathroom remodels, and the replacement of the existing heating system with a new furnace to service all third-floor habitable rooms, at a total cost of $22,000. This renovation work was accompanied by comprehensive electrical and plumbing updates, including the installation of new fixtures and safety equipment.

The property has had several street space permits issued in 2009, with no associated costs. More recent history shows minimal building-related issues, with three 311 calls logged in recent years: a resolved garbage and debris complaint in July 2024, a hazardous materials report involving glass in January 2022, and a 2012 sidewalk defect report that was investigated and found to have no hazardous conditions. The building's maintenance and compliance history suggests regular updates to systems and prompt attention to issues as they arise, with the most substantial work completed occurring in 2009.

Risk rating

How 190-192 2Nd 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.
