Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2626-2628 Anza Street in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Julie Lee, was constructed in 1923 as a two-story flats & duplex structure. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past 25 years, with the most recent work being a sewer line repair completed in October 2023. Historical records show notable issues between 2005-2006 regarding structural concerns, particularly with rear stairs that were found to be decayed and in need of replacement, leading to multiple violations and complaints during that period. These violations were eventually resolved, with permits issued (though initially expired) for window replacements, vinyl siding installation, and emergency egress improvements in 2008, along with various electrical upgrades between 2005-2010 including panel replacements and rewiring of first-floor fixtures.

The building has a documented history of parking-related issues in recent years, with several incidents recorded between 2019-2023 involving vehicles parking on sidewalks or blocking driveways, resulting in citations. While these parking issues don't directly impact the building's structural integrity or resident comfort, they indicate ongoing concerns with parking management in the area. The property's maintenance record shows regular upkeep and modernization efforts, including bathroom renovations in 2005, electrical system upgrades, and exterior improvements, suggesting active management since the property experienced its major structural challenges in the mid-2000s.

Risk rating

How 2626-2628 Anza St'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.
