Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2208-2210 25th Street in Potrero Hill, owned by Sayeed Lutfus and Khaled Farz, has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects since its construction in 1951. Most recently, in March 2022, the property received sewer infrastructure updates with the replacement of approximately 15 feet of 4-inch sewer pipe from the front of the house to the sewer house trap. A notable compliance issue was addressed in 2000 when a deck was constructed on the back of the house to resolve a violation notice from 1999, and there were earlier roofing updates attempted in 1999 though that permit ultimately expired.

The building has experienced typical urban challenges as evidenced by recent 311 calls, though none directly concerning the building's internal conditions. In 2024, there were multiple reports of street cleaning issues, including garbage and debris complaints, and a water main break was reported in the area. Two fire safety complaints were filed in the building's history - a weed and grass issue in 2017 and a blocked exit concern in 2007 - both of which were determined to have no merit. The property has recently undergone a change of ownership process in early 2025, which included a waived Rent Board Fee as a courtesy during the transition. While the building's maintenance record shows regular attention to infrastructure needs, it's worth noting that several permits from the 1980s are either completed or cancelled with no specified work details in the current records.

Risk rating

How 2208-2210 25Th 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, 436 are predicted to be safer.
