Initial analysis

The 2615-2617 24th Street property is a 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, built in 1927 and owned by S Lew Family LLC. The building has undergone several significant safety and structural improvements over the years, including a completed soft-story seismic retrofit in 2015-2016, foundation work in 1987, and most recently, a fire alarm system upgrade in 2022 to comply with current safety standards. However, the property has experienced recurring fire safety system issues, with violations related to alarm systems, fire extinguishers, and sprinklers documented between 2019 and 2024, including two recent violations in August 2024. A large cluster of building violations was documented in February 2023, including issues with the fire escape ladder, self-closing doors, fire safety documentation, and structural maintenance, though these were abated by June 2024.

Recent inspections have revealed ongoing concerns with the building, including a June 2024 complaint about locked and broken fire exit windows. Historical records show previous serious issues in 2017 regarding heat, hot water, and fire safety, as well as concerns about illegal ground-floor residential units in a commercial zone. The building has met its soft-story retrofit requirements as a Tier 3 property. Numerous 311 calls between late 2024 and early 2025 mainly relate to street-level issues such as graffiti and debris. While most fire-related incidents recorded (such as false alarms and system malfunctions) have not resulted in injuries or additional damage, the pattern of fire safety violations and systemic infrastructure upgrades suggests ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges. The property has completed several important infrastructure upgrades in recent years, including electrical panel replacements and foundation work, indicating ongoing investment in building safety and systems.

Risk rating

How 2615-2617 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
26th percentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 1761 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

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

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 56.3%
Moderate concern 28.9%
Severe concern 14.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
