Initial analysis

The 13-unit, 4-story multi-family residential building at 2450 Fulton Street in Lone Mountain, owned by Yj Wong Family Lp, was constructed in 1961 and has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2018 (cost: $200,000) and a fire alarm system upgrade in 2022 ($25,000) to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements. Recent issues of concern include a November 2023 complaint regarding mold, water damage, and mechanical noise in Unit 104, along with recurring mechanical equipment noise complaints in 2024. The building has experienced periodic fire safety concerns, with multiple fire complaints between 2019-2024 related to alarm systems, exit maintenance, and sprinkler systems, though most were either found to have no merit or were promptly corrected. Historical maintenance records show various repairs including window replacements (2013), stucco repairs (1987, 1996), and a water heater replacement (2011), while a cluster of violations in 2003 regarding fire safety equipment and egress obstructions was resolved within three months. The property has maintained active compliance with major safety requirements, as evidenced by the completion of the soft-story retrofit and regular updates to fire safety systems.

Risk rating

How 2450 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 519 buildings in this neighborhood, 503 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 19.5%
Moderate concern 35.6%
Severe concern 44.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
