Initial analysis

The property at 227-229 22nd Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Central Richmond neighborhood, constructed in 1922 and currently owned by the Teresa Pi Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past three decades, including a complete reroofing project in 2005 costing $6,000, window replacement in 1993, and replacement of rotted wood in 1990. A proposed conversion of an existing storage room into a laundry room with additional toilet facilities was permitted in 1996, though records indicate this permit subsequently expired without completion.

Recent property concerns from late 2024 demonstrate ongoing challenges with parking enforcement in the vicinity, particularly regarding driveway blockages, with multiple citations issued between September and October 2024. The frequency of parking-related incidents reached a peak in October 2024, with several cases where enforcement officers were unable to locate the reported violations. Additionally, there was one documented incident of garbage and debris (furniture) on the street/sidewalk in October 2024 that was resolved. While most historical improvements to the property have been properly completed, the status of the 1996 laundry room conversion remains notable as an incomplete project from nearly three decades ago.

Risk rating

How 227-229 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.
