The property has experienced significant elevator reliability issues in 2023-2024, with several tenant complaints about outages lasting weeks, particularly affecting disabled residents. The building underwent numerous compliance issues in 2023, resulting in multiple permits for safety improvements, including handrails, dryer vents, egress lighting, and exhaust ducts. These violations were addressed between April and November 2023, though some related to fire safety equipment and documentation requirements appear to still be open or were only recently abated. A rodent infestation was reported in mid-2023, showing delayed management response to pest control measures.

Recent complaints have focused on elevator service, rodent infestations, and various building systems requiring maintenance. While most violations from the 2023 inspections have been addressed as of November 2023, there remain open violations regarding sleeping area requirements and some historical fire safety documentation issues from 2017. The property has undergone several significant infrastructure improvements over the years, including roof work in 2003 and 2006, hot water tank replacement in 2007, and various electrical upgrades in 2023.

Risk rating

How 924 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 167 buildings in this neighborhood, 154 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 6.0%
Moderate concern 64.4%
Severe concern 29.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
