Initial analysis

The property at 2970-2972 Mission Street is a three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building with commercial space, built in 1907 and currently owned by Antonio & Rita Castellucci. The building has experienced several significant issues in recent years, most notably fire damage in 2021 that required substantial repairs to walls, roof, and electrical systems at a cost of $300,000, though records indicate these permits have expired. As of 2023-2024, there are multiple active complaints regarding vacant storefronts, vacant building status, and unaddressed fire damage. The property has been cited for failing to comply with the vacant or abandoned commercial storefront ordinance, and there is a current non-compliant status under San Francisco's soft-story retrofit program (Tier 4).

The building's maintenance history shows various repairs and upgrades over the years, including significant electrical work in 2022 involving rewiring of multiple units and new lighting installations, as well as plumbing improvements with the installation of high-efficiency furnaces in 2022. Historical issues included dry rot repairs in 1994, multiple building code violations in 2004 (since abated), and a routine inspection in 2015. Recent 311 calls from 2023-2024 have primarily concerned external issues such as graffiti, general cleaning needs, and multiple sewage discharge incidents from the building's sewer system, though most of these have been resolved. The property has undergone several improvement efforts, including roofing work in 2005 and stair repairs in 2015, but current violations and complaints suggest ongoing management challenges.

Risk rating

How 2970-2974 Mission 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.
