AI summary

The two-unit, two-story residential building at 2021 Judah Street in the Central Sunset neighborhood was constructed in 1945 and is currently owned by William Woon-jong & Diana Y. The property has undergone several notable maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent being a comprehensive bathroom renovation completed in 2022, which included electrical work and cost approximately $14,500. Earlier records show a reroofing project completed in 2006, though this period also marked the emergence of significant issues when a roof leak caused ceiling collapse and mold problems that persisted until 2009.

The building has experienced some concerning maintenance and safety issues, most notably in March 2020 when two separate complaints were filed regarding unpermitted plumbing work, mold, and the presence of asbestos-wrapped heating ducts, though these complaints are currently listed as "Not Active." A potential plumbing vent cover issue was reported and resolved in January 2021. The property has had recurring issues with parking violations in the vicinity, with multiple reports of vehicles parking on sidewalks and blocking driveways between 2018 and 2025. Most recently, in January 2025, there is an open report regarding a collapsed sidewalk. While these parking and sidewalk issues are external to the building itself, they may impact resident access and convenience.

Risk rating

How 2021 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.
