Initial analysis

The property at 2233 Franklin Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Pacific Heights, owned by Paramount 2233 LLC and constructed in 1900. The building has undergone several significant safety inspections and improvements over the years. In 2001, the building was cited for multiple security violations requiring the installation of deadbolt locks and door viewers, all of which were abated by November 30, 2001. A 2013 routine safety inspection revealed issues with wood stairs, uneven steps, and egress obstruction from back stairs, though these concerns were addressed by October 31, 2013. The most recent building permit on record dates back to 1995 for reroofing work, which is now expired.

Recent activity around the property (2024-2025) has involved numerous 311 calls related to garbage and debris, with eight such reports between August 2024 and January 2025, primarily concerning bagged waste and furniture. There was also one report of a blocking driveway issue in July 2024 that was not confirmed by responding officers. While there was one minor fire-related incident recorded in 2014 involving a smoke detector activation with no fire or injuries, and a combustible materials complaint that was promptly corrected, these incidents represent non-threatening events in the building's overall history. The building's most recent known inspection and compliance issues occurred over a decade ago, with no active violations currently on record.

Risk rating

How 2233 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, 183 are predicted to be safer.
