Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2616-2618 19th Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Lu Tuong, is a two-story flats and duplex structure constructed in 1906. The building's documented maintenance history shows a reroofing project completed in 2002 at a cost of $6,000, though this permit is currently listed as expired. The property has experienced recurring issues with driveway access, with five separate incidents of blocked driveways between January 2021 and February 2023, all of which were addressed by parking enforcement officers. There have been two tree-related incidents, including one in 2019 involving an overgrown tree blocking the sidewalk (though it was scheduled for removal) and another report in 2015 regarding graffiti that was later resolved. The most recent activity related to the property was a January 2024 encampment cleanup that achieved a 4-foot clearance, representing the most significant recent concern regarding the property's immediate surroundings. While the building's history shows regular municipal interactions, these primarily involve external issues such as street cleaning, parking enforcement, and urban maintenance rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 2616-2618 19Th 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
85th percentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 357 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.

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.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 72.6%
Moderate concern 21.2%
Severe concern 6.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
