Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 2422-2426 Fulton Street in Lone Mountain, owned by Richard K. Petrick, has experienced several significant events since its construction in 1910. Most notably, the building faced multiple complaints and violations in 2022 regarding heating issues, including a July complaint about inadequate heat and a November complaint about an alleged illegal rear unit, though inspection found no evidence of unauthorized occupancy. In January 2022, there were serious maintenance concerns including lack of heat, water leaks, broken appliances, and pest issues. The building has undergone some structural and safety improvements, including a $30,000 fire access staircase replacement completed in 2014, and seismic retrofitting work in 2008 involving foundation anchor bolts and plywood stiffening panels.

The property has a history of addressing various building safety concerns, as evidenced by building permits for HVAC system installation in 2018 and solar PV system installation in the same year, though both permits have since expired. A routine housing inspection in 2004 revealed several safety concerns related to emergency egress, fire safety, and smoke detectors, which should have been addressed. More recent concerns include a cooling system violation in 2022 that was abated by September 2022. The building has also faced some environmental challenges, including mold remediation work in 2003. A tenant buyout occurred in February 2023 for $35,000. The property has experienced several maintenance issues over the years, including dry rot in back stairs, which was reported in 2010, and a 2011 complaint about a possible illegal unit in the basement. Comparative to its age, the building has received some modern upgrades, including solar power, but has also faced recurring maintenance and compliance issues that suggest periodic challenges with maintaining housing quality standards.

Risk rating

How 2422-2426 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.
