Initial analysis

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 2424 Francisco Street in the Marina district, owned by Eric Bell and Hillary Peracch, was constructed in 1938. The property's documented history shows several significant structural changes and maintenance activities, including a completed demolition of a back brick wall section and installation of new wood framing in 1990, an expired reroofing permit from 1992, and an attempted but withdrawn permit in 2017 for converting the garage to an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) with new sprinklers and rear facade modifications.

The building has undergone regular housing inspections in 1999 and 2010, both of which were resolved promptly. The surrounding area has experienced various municipal and public works issues, particularly concerning street maintenance, with multiple reports of manhole covers and pavement defects between 2010 and 2012, though these were not directly related to the building's condition. More recent neighborhood incidents include street cleaning issues and waste removal in 2022, along with reports of encampments in 2021. While these external factors indicate typical urban neighborhood challenges, they are not directly related to the building's structural integrity or resident safety. The most recent significant modification attempt (the 2017 ADU conversion) was not completed, as the permit status shows it was withdrawn.

Risk rating

How 2424 Francisco 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 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 514 are predicted to be safer.
