Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2122-2126 22nd Street in Potrero Hill, owned by Ek Property LLC, was constructed in 1987 following the demolition of a previous structure in 1986. The two-story duplex has undergone several significant changes since its construction, most notably a contentious kitchen remodeling incident in 2004 that triggered multiple building code violations due to work being performed without proper permits and the failure to complete required special inspections. This violation was eventually resolved by February 2005 through a subsequent permitted renovation that included kitchen remodels in both units, complete with electrical updates (E200412281567).

In 2016, the building went through a controversial legalization process for an unauthorized dwelling unit, which involved modifying a shower stall and retaining a half bathroom at the entry level, with an associated permit cost of $20,000. The building's maintenance history includes a completed reroofing project in 2008 (cost: $3,500) and kitchen remodel works in both units in 2004 (cost: $5,000). More recent activity at the property includes a utility excavation by PG&E in late 2024, though this appears to be a routine infrastructure matter. The building's permit and violation history suggests a pattern of unauthorized modifications followed by corrective actions, with all known violations having been resolved through proper permitting processes.

Risk rating

How 2122-2126 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.
