Initial analysis

The 5-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 327 22nd Avenue in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Hui Family Trust, has undergone several significant events since its construction in 1979. The building experienced its last major renovation in 1993 with a completed reroofing project. Two notable sets of fire safety violations were documented: in 2002, there were multiple fire-related issues including problems with a fire escape drop ladder, other unspecified fire violations, and concerns about combustible storage, though all these violations were abated by June 12, 2002. A subsequent routine inspection in 2011 revealed additional fire safety concerns, including the need for proper fire extinguishers and annual certification of the central fire alarm system maintenance, all of which were resolved by June 28, 2011.

Recent maintenance and operational history shows some infrastructure challenges, including a sewage backup incident in December 2021 and a human/animal waste issue in October 2020, both of which were resolved. The building has been subject to various neighborhood concerns typical of urban settings, including multiple reports of abandoned vehicles (most recently in October 2024), and several graffiti incidents between 2016-2018. There was one recorded smoke detector activation incident due to malfunction, with no civilian injuries reported. Of particular note, there was an attempt to expand the building with an additional floor, as per a planning record, but this proposal was ultimately canceled. The building's original construction was documented alongside a similar project at 3168 Mission St, both requiring certain approvals that were ultimately granted.

Risk rating

How 327 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
70th percentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 675 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 75.2%
Moderate concern 15.7%
Severe concern 9.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
