Initial analysis

The property at 4251 22nd Street in Noe Valley is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1904, currently owned by Levin Living Trust. The building has undergone several significant structural and maintenance improvements over the past 15 years, with the most recent major work involving foundation repairs in 2022 that included extensive rebar installation, costing $20,000. This project was accompanied by both sewer relocation work in the bathroom area and sewer repair work completed in November 2022. Prior improvements include window replacements in 2007 and reroofing work in 1997, along with an electrical service upgrade to 100 amps in 2003.

The building's maintenance record shows attention to essential systems, with no fire incidents recorded and only one minor situation requiring assistance for an invalid, with no civilian injuries reported. Recent municipal records from the past year (2023-2024) indicate recurring issues with vehicles blocking driveways, with at least six such incidents reported, three of which resulted in citations. Two pavement defect reports were filed in 2024 and 2018, with the 2024 case currently open. A sewage backup incident was reported and resolved in 2018, and there have been three reports of abandoned vehicles in the vicinity between 2011 and 2016, all of which were resolved when the vehicles were gone upon inspection. The property appears to have maintained compliance with building codes through regular updates of critical systems, though the frequency of driveway blocking incidents may warrant attention to parking management in the area.

Risk rating

How 4251 22Nd 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
79th percentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 395 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.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

Neighborhood location

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

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 80.0%
Moderate concern 15.9%
Severe concern 4.0%
