Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 338 22nd Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1916, currently owned by Wong Mankit. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, with the most recent major renovation occurring in 2020, involving a kitchen remodel and bathroom upgrades in the upper unit at a cost of nearly $50,000. In 2016, substantial modifications were made to both units including the addition of rooms, bathroom renovations, and the installation of new electrical systems featuring smoke detectors, with work continuing through associated plumbing and mechanical permits. The building's infrastructure has been regularly updated, including comprehensive window replacements in 2015 with wood-aluminum windows at the front and vinyl windows at the rear.

The property has maintained active compliance with local regulations, with all building permits showing as issued or completed. While there have been several 311 calls regarding the property's surroundings between 2010 and 2024, these were primarily related to street cleaning and public infrastructure (such as streetlights) rather than building-specific issues. Recent exterior maintenance was documented in 2024 with a report of loose garbage and debris, though this was promptly resolved. Historical records show the building was previously converted from a single to a two-unit dwelling in 1992, and all permitted improvements appear to have been completed in accordance with regulatory requirements.

Risk rating

How 338 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
