Initial analysis

The two-story, 8-unit multi-family residential building at 2562 Post Street in Lower Pacific Heights, built in 1965 and owned by Charge Partners LLC, has undergone significant safety and modernization improvements in recent years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 (Tier 3), involving the installation of steel moment frames and foundation work, and has since received its Certificate of Final Completion. Recent safety upgrades include a comprehensive fire alarm system modernization in 2024 ($31,930) and the installation of fire sprinklers on the ground floor in late 2023 ($25,979), demonstrating compliance with current fire safety requirements. The building underwent substantial improvements in 2018-2021, including the addition of accessory dwelling units (ADUs), with the most recent revision in 2021 retaining one unit modification. Other significant renovations include a 400-amp electrical service upgrade (2022) and various unit-specific improvements, such as a complete electrical rewiring of Unit #10 (2023) and the installation of a mini-split system (2023).

Historical records show the building has faced various maintenance and safety challenges over the years, including water damage issues in 2010, multiple routine inspections, and earlier complaints regarding faulty carpeting and pest issues in 1997. The property has maintained an active maintenance record, with regular plumbing and electrical upgrades, including recent work on fire sprinkler systems and HVAC improvements. There have been several 311 calls regarding the property, primarily related to street parking issues and neighborhood maintenance matters, though these are external to the building itself. Fire incident records indicate occasional alarm activations and smoke detector issues, though none resulted in fires or civilian injuries.

Risk rating

How 2562 Post 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
