Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2101-2103 Judah Street in the Central Sunset neighborhood, owned by The Song Yee & Elaine Chiu, has undergone several significant changes since its construction in 1958. Most notably, in March 2020, the building received substantial upgrades through a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodel, including new cabinets, tiles, countertops, plumbing fixtures, and an extensive electrical installation comprising LED lights, switches, receptacles, and appliance connections. This renovation, with a reported cost of $20,000, appears to have been properly documented through building, plumbing, and electrical permits, all marked as completed.

The building's history includes several maintenance and compliance issues that were addressed in a timely manner. In March 2005, multiple violations were documented related to interior surfaces, including water damage, weatherproofing issues on the siding, and problems with plumbing fixtures, all of which were resolved by April 2005. The property has also experienced some enforcement actions, including a 2014 complaint regarding unpermitted construction work and a 2016 incident involving improper paint containment, though both cases are listed as not active. More recently, there has been a notable pattern of garbage and debris reports near the property, with eight recorded incidents between August 2024 and January 2025, though all were resolved through city clean-up services and appear to be related to street-level maintenance rather than building condition issues.

Risk rating

How 2101-2103 Judah 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 57 are predicted to be safer.
