Initial analysis

The two-story, multi-family residential building at 2724-2736 24th Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, built in 1900 and containing 8 units, has experienced several significant incidents over its history. Most notably, the building suffered fire damage in 2015 that affected one apartment, requiring $30,000 in repairs and subsequent electrical and plumbing work in the kitchen and bathroom areas. The property has also faced structural challenges, including dry rot issues in the rear exterior wood stairs (2015) and minor electrical fire damage at the ceiling (2000). The building's maintenance history shows attention to safety features, with past repairs including electrical wiring upgrades, exterior lighting installation, and various plumbing improvements.

Recent history (2023-2024) raises concerns about the property, with multiple active complaints regarding the commercial space, including reports of it being abandoned/derelict and concerns about an unauthorized security gate installation. The property has a documented history of code violations and compliance issues, particularly in 2000 and 2010, addressing concerns such as inadequate lighting, combustible storage, fire extinguisher requirements, and various interior maintenance needs. More recent inspections and 311 calls (2024-2025) have primarily focused on exterior maintenance issues such as pavement defects, sidewalk collapse, and graffiti. While many historical violations have been resolved, the building's recent history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges with both the residential and commercial portions of the property.

Risk rating

How 2724-2736 24Th 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, 2071 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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 17.7%
Moderate concern 73.4%
Severe concern 8.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
