Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 600 2nd Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1905, currently owned by Lilly L Wong. The building has undergone several maintenance and infrastructure updates over the years, including a roof replacement in 2001 costing $5,200 and a gas line rerouting project in 2013. The most significant current issue affecting the property is an active plumbing violation from April 2019 concerning a missing or clogged fresh air inlet and house trap requirements, which remains unresolved.

Recent records show various external maintenance and environmental issues around the property, including multiple incidents of sidewalk cleaning needs, illegal postings, and hazardous materials in the vicinity, with the most recent complaints dating from 2022 to 2024. The property has had some documented parking enforcement issues and general cleaning needs outside the building. A potential planning issue regarding the loss of Production, Distribution, and Repair (PDR) space in a moratorium area was investigated in 2018 but was found to have no violation. Notably, there has been one recorded vehicular accident near the property, though no civilian injuries were reported in that incident.

Risk rating

How 600 2Nd 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.
