Initial analysis

The 6-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 2349 27th Avenue, constructed in 1926, has undergone numerous significant renovations and faced several concerning issues over recent years. Most notably, the building completed mandatory soft-story seismic retrofitting in 2015 with a cost of $35,000, and installed a new fire sprinkler system on the ground floor in 2016. Multiple unit upgrades have been performed, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in Units 2, 3, and 4, with associated costs ranging from $3,000 to $30,000. Building-wide safety improvements were made in 2017 with a fire alarm system upgrade costing $6,000, though recent fire violations were recorded in 2024 regarding alarm system maintenance and monitoring.

The property has experienced numerous concerning incidents between 2015 and 2016, including complaints about mold and mildew, rodent infestations, gas leaks, and fire safety violations. In 2016, there were reports of unauthorized construction work, including concerns about asbestos handling, and multiple complaints regarding building systems, including electrical issues and unauthorized unit conversions. The building's management's handling of these issues has resulted in several violations and complaints being filed with various city departments. Most recently, in late 2024, there have been multiple complaints regarding parking issues around the property, including blocked driveways and an abandoned vehicle, though these are parking enforcement matters rather than building-specific issues.

Risk rating

How 2349 27Th 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
48th percentile

Out of 255 buildings in this neighborhood, 133 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 62.9%
Moderate concern 22.3%
Severe concern 14.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
