Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 2428-2432 Fulton Street, constructed in 1911 in the Lone Mountain neighborhood, has undergone several significant improvements and faced some regulatory challenges in recent years. Most notably, the building has received substantial upgrades to its infrastructure, including a complete window renovation in 2018 ($125,183 project) replacing 52 windows with energy-efficient alternatives, a roof replacement in 2020 ($15,000 project), and a furnace replacement in early 2022. The property underwent important safety upgrades following a routine inspection in late 2016, during which multiple fire safety violations were identified but subsequently abated by December 2016, including the installation of required fire extinguishers, smoke enclosure door closers, and carbon monoxide alarms. Earlier structural improvements from 2006 included installation of a reinforced concrete cap and foundation stabilization work costing $17,500.

Recent maintenance and security concerns have been relatively minimal, with the most recent issues primarily involving exterior elements such as graffiti and tree damage reported through 311 calls between 2019 and 2024. The building's management has generally responded to maintenance needs, as evidenced by multiple completed work orders. A notable historical compliance issue involved illegal short-term rentals at the property, which was resolved in 2017 when the owner removed unauthorized listings following regulatory action. The property has maintained active permits for various street-related matters (as indicated by multiple street space permits), suggesting ongoing attention to public space responsibilities. Recent utility upgrades include electrical work completed in 2007, though a 2006 tenant improvement electrical permit was cancelled. The building's maintenance record indicates regular upkeep and prompt attention to safety compliance, with no active violations or complaints as of the most recent data.

Risk rating

How 2428-2432 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.
