Initial analysis

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 2666 22nd Street in the Inner Mission, owned by John Chung Shew, was constructed in 1900 and has undergone several significant maintenance and repair works over the past decades. Most recently, in June 2024, permits were issued for repairs to seven front stairs steps, which are street-visible, representing the building's current maintenance focus. The property has a documented history of addressing basic infrastructure needs, including a complete reroofing in 2012 (costing $8,000) and another reroofing project in 1989. A central heating system was installed in Unit 2668 in 2020, following a period in early 2020 when multiple housing code violations were recorded, including complaints about inadequate heating and broken windows. These violations were abated by July 2024.

The building's recent history shows one significant incident of concern as of December 2024, involving unpermitted interior rehabilitation work with multiple workers on-site, which was recorded but marked as not active. Earlier complaints from 2010 regarding unpermitted stair rebuilding were resolved promptly. The property's surrounding area has experienced typical urban challenges as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2009 and 2022, primarily related to street cleaning needs, including reports of loose garbage, medical waste, and encampments, though these were all resolved by municipal services. The building's maintenance record shows a pattern of addressing both routine upkeep and code compliance issues, with all known violations eventually being abated, though some took longer than usual to resolve.

Risk rating

How 2666 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

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 1999 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

DBI complaint rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building complaint rate across the owner's portfolio.

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 39.6%
Moderate concern 38.4%
Severe concern 22.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
