Initial analysis

The Offutt Trust-owned duplex at 2441-2443 Franklin Street in Pacific Heights is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1920. The property has undergone several significant renovations over the years, with the most recent substantial work occurring between 2017-2019, including a major $150,000 lightwell infill project spanning three floors, kitchen and bathroom remodels, and the addition of skylights and storage space. These improvements were accompanied by substantial electrical and plumbing upgrades, including new circuits, lighting, and bathroom fixtures. Earlier renovations include a complete kitchen and bathroom remodel in 2009 (with separate permits for electrical and plumbing work), garage remodeling in 1998, window replacement in 1987, and a reroofing project in 1993.

The building has experienced some maintenance issues, most notably a sewage backup incident from a side sewer vent in September 2024. The property has generated numerous parking enforcement calls in recent months, with several cases of driveway blocking reported and addressed by parking enforcement, including citations issued for vehicles that obstructed access. The surrounding area has faced typical urban challenges, as evidenced by 311 calls regarding waste and cleaning needs on nearby streets, though these are unrelated to the building's condition. A 2006 fire complaint was investigated and resolved with no ongoing concerns noted. The property's maintenance record shows regular updating and improvement of facilities, with particular attention to kitchens and bathrooms in both units, reflecting a pattern of ongoing investment in building upkeep and modernization.

Risk rating

How 2441-2443 Franklin 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 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 212 are predicted to be safer.
