Initial analysis

The property at 1164 Fulton Street in Alamo Square is a 3-story, 2-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1889 and currently owned by Olema Investments LLC. The building has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past decade, with major projects completed between 2014-2016 including the installation of a residential elevator, a comprehensive electrical renovation valued at $60,000, the addition of a residential fire sprinkler system, and extensive plumbing upgrades that included new underground plumbing for five bathrooms, two kitchens, and various other fixtures. In 2021, a building permit was issued to replace the front entry door with a new security door following a code violation notice, with a cost of $30,000.

The building's historical preservation work has included facade restoration to its original design and the filling in of a third-floor lightwell at the rear, for which variance approvals were obtained. The property has faced three notable building violations in its history: one in 2008 related to fire safety equipment and smoke detectors (which were abated in 2009), and a more recent violation in 2021 regarding unauthorized facade alterations in a historical district. Recent maintenance issues documented through 311 calls (2023-2024) have primarily concerned street-level concerns such as garbage disposal and parking violations, with one open structural maintenance issue regarding graffiti reported in August 2024. The most recent significant infrastructure improvement was the installation of a Tesla wall connector in 2019, indicating the building's accommodation for modern electric vehicle charging needs.

Risk rating

How 1164 Fulton 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.
