Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story apartment building at 2380 Franklin Street in Pacific Heights, constructed in 1902, is currently undergoing significant modifications under an $900,000 permit issued in October 2023 that includes legalizing a second unit at the ground floor, adding additional parking, reinforcing the foundation, and other improvements including an elevator installation. Recent activity in August 2023 raised concerns about unpermitted work involving foundation posts, and there have been multiple historical complaints about unpermitted electrical work between 2019-2022, including issues with exterior wiring and substandard electrical systems that required repairs. The building has documented some safety concerns, including a 2022 incident where a window frame fell between floors, though no injuries were reported.

The property has undergone various maintenance and improvement work over the years, including roof replacement in 2004, bathroom and laundry room remodeling in 2020 with corresponding electrical updates, and necessary repairs following a fire incident in 2003 that affected the main stairwell and skylight. Recent building permits and planned improvements suggest an active effort to upgrade and expand the property, though some concerns about permitting compliance have been noted. The building's recent history includes multiple 311 calls regarding garbage and debris in the vicinity during 2024, a sewage backup incident in June 2024, and two encampment reports in February 2024, though these external issues do not directly reflect on the building's internal conditions.

Risk rating

How 2380 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, 616 are predicted to be safer.
