Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2600-2602 21st Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood is a two-story flats/duplex structure built in 1904 and currently owned by Rojas Lvg Tr. Recent activity around the property has been marked by infrastructure and safety concerns, particularly in early 2025, with multiple encampment incidents and various shared spaces-related issues affecting access and safety. These included ADA accessibility concerns, tripping hazards, and other obstructions that remain open as of February 2025. The building's maintenance history shows some significant infrastructure work, including plumbing work in 2009 (replacement of the house trap under the sidewalk) and reroofing work from 1996, though the roof permit status is recorded as expired.

The property has experienced several fire-related incidents over the years, including three significant events recorded as smoke detector activation, electrical equipment issues, and a gas pipeline overpressure situation, though fortunately none resulted in civilian injuries. There have also been two fire safety complaints regarding blocked exits in 2013 and an unspecified issue in 2020, both of which were reportedly corrected. The building's plumbing infrastructure received attention in 2009 with multiple permits issued for street space and sidewalk work, including a street space-only permit valued at $1.00. The area around the building has experienced various municipal service interactions, including street cleaning, traffic signal damage, and garbage disposal issues, particularly during late 2024, though most of these community service matters have been resolved. While the building's documented history shows periodic attention to maintenance and compliance matters, particularly during 2009, the property currently faces significant neighborhood challenges related to public space management as evidenced by recent 311 calls.

Risk rating

How 2600-2602 21St 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.
