Initial analysis

This two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building, located at 118-120 22nd Avenue in the Lake -- The Presidio neighborhood, was constructed in 1922 and is currently owned by Jenny Sit. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with significant work performed on windows, roofing, and general maintenance. Most notably, in 2014, eight front visible windows were replaced with Anderson wood clad windows to improve energy efficiency and comply with egress requirements. The building underwent reroofing projects in 1992, 1993, and 2017, with the most recent roofing work costing $12,000. Other significant repairs included addressing dry rot on the front of the building in 2012 and interior maintenance work in 2007 to repair drywall and paint in multiple rooms affected by a prior roof leak.

The property's plumbing systems received an upgrade in 2012, with work performed on all three floors to install modern bathroom and kitchen facilities, though this permit has since expired. There have been two reports of abandoned vehicles near the property in July 2018, but in both cases, the vehicles were gone when authorities arrived to investigate. The building's recent maintenance record shows consistent attention to infrastructure and systems improvements, with permits from 1994-2019 indicating ongoing investment in the property's upkeep and modernization.

Risk rating

How 118-120 22Nd 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
