Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2909-2911 23rd Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, owned by Special Needs Trust A Fbo M, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, most notably in recent years with the installation of electric vehicle charging infrastructure, including two Tesla wall connectors in 2022-2023. In 2011, the building received substantial interior updates, including bathroom renovations and deck repairs, addressing important maintenance needs such as dry rot remediation of less than 50% of the rear deck system and the installation of new guard railings. A serious incident occurred in 1996 when the building sustained fire damage, requiring repairs to the kitchen, bathroom, dining room, and furnace, though these permits are now listed as expired.

The building's history includes some concerning tenant quality of life issues in the mid-1990s, with multiple housing complaints filed in September 1994 regarding pest infestations (roaches and mice), lack of fire safety equipment, and issues with bathroom facilities, though these complaints were marked as abated by September 1997. Since then, there have been no reported building complaints or housing violations in recent years. The property has experienced recurring issues with sidewalk parking violations in the immediate vicinity from 2020 through 2024, with multiple enforcement cases documented, though these are external to the building itself. Recent maintenance and improvements suggest the current ownership is actively maintaining the property, with no recent complaints or violations on record that would indicate current resident safety or habitability concerns.

Risk rating

How 2909-2911 23Rd 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.
