Initial analysis

The property at 2137-2139 24th Street in Potrero Hill is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Thomas M. Hundt. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past two decades, with the most recent occurring in early 2024 when the final inspection was completed for work related to stair treads, siding repairs, handrail installation, and paint work that addressed a notice of violation from 2010. In 2015-2016, substantial work was performed to replace a garden retaining wall, including plumbing work to connect a drain to the sewer lateral, costing approximately $21,000.

The building has experienced several safety and maintenance issues over its history, with multiple violations documented between 2000 and 2017. These included concerns about fire safety (fire extinguisher maintenance and egress obstruction), security issues (door locks and self-closing devices), structural maintenance needs, and requirements for carbon monoxide alarms/smoke detectors. Two routine housing inspections (2010 and 2017) revealed various building code compliance issues that were subsequently addressed. Historical complaints also indicate past problems with drainage (kitchen flooding in 1997) and fire escape access (1998). The property has been subject to multiple parking-related complaints in recent months (October 2024), though these are external to the building's condition and maintenance history.

Risk rating

How 2137-2139 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 726 buildings in this neighborhood, 661 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.

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.

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 47.1%
Moderate concern 33.2%
Severe concern 19.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
