Initial analysis

The 14-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 2591 22nd Avenue in the Parkside neighborhood, owned by the Thomas J Conley Sr Revocable Trust, has undergone significant safety system upgrades in recent months. Most notably, in October 2023, the fire alarm system was upgraded to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, followed by an electrical modification in November 2023 to update the fire panel and install low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas. The building's safety record shows a pattern of addressing fire safety concerns, with previous sprinkler/standpipe system issues documented in 2015 and 2018, both of which were corrected. The property has experienced some maintenance challenges, including two sewage backup incidents from the side sewer vent in September and October 2024, though these were resolved without overflow conditions. Other recent issues include instances of illegal parking in the vicinity (January 2025), and various reports of garbage and debris that were promptly addressed by city services.

The building's history reveals a commitment to maintaining safety systems, with earlier improvements including a boiler installation for domestic hot water in 2013, and the original sprinkler installation in 1984. While there were historical concerns about hoarding noted in fire complaints from 2018-2020, and a blocked exit incident in 2007, all were resolved and marked as "Condition Corrected." The property has experienced minimal fire incidents, with only two recorded situations: a contained cooking fire and an EMS standby, neither resulting in civilian injuries. The building's infrastructure appears to be actively maintained, as evidenced by the recent substantial investment of over $50,000 in fire safety upgrades.

Risk rating

How 2591 22Nd 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
2th percentile

Out of 255 buildings in this neighborhood, 250 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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

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 13.1%
Moderate concern 20.4%
Severe concern 66.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
