Initial analysis

This two-story, multi-family residential building located at 2195 Cayuga Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Mission neighborhood was built in 1965 and contains three units. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including a window replacement project in 2007 that involved installing ten new windows and repairing surrounding stucco and siding, with a cost of $8,800, and a complete reroofing in 1989. The building has experienced recurring fire safety issues, with three documented routine inspections revealing violations related to fire safety - including egress obstructions at rear stairs and uncharged fire extinguishers - though all these violations were resolved by 2006. The most recent construction activity was a street space permit issued in 2007, though no associated costs were recorded.

Recent months have seen a high volume of 311 calls from August to December 2024, primarily regarding street cleaning issues including multiple reports of garbage, debris, and waste on the street and sidewalk, with several cases involving yard waste and one instance of human waste or urine. There have also been multiple reports of abandoned vehicles in the vicinity, with at least one requiring towing for safety reasons. The building's inspection history shows regular oversight by housing inspection services, with routine inspections conducted in 1999, 2000, 2004, and 2006, all of which were resolved and closed. While the fire safety violations from the early 2000s were addressed, the recent surge in street cleaning issues may be of interest to current and prospective tenants, though these appear to be more related to immediate neighborhood conditions rather than building-specific problems.

Risk rating

How 2195 Cayuga Ave'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.
