Initial analysis

The three-story, six-unit apartment building at 2344-2348 Fulton St in Lone Mountain, owned by the Kang Family Trust 2002 and constructed in 1907, has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple maintenance challenges over the past few decades. Most notably, in 2018, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit with a cost of $68,000, bringing it into compliance with seismic safety requirements. The building underwent major renovations in 2005, including a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodeling of all six units ($100,000), electrical system upgrades with new service and metering ($20,000), and garage improvements including steel beam installation and partition wall addition ($50,000). More recent concerns include an active complaint from October 2024 regarding broken windows, a damaged front door, and garbage in stairwells, as well as reports from early 2023 about mold issues, non-functioning lighting in stairwells, and plumbing problems. The building has experienced multiple fire safety violations, particularly in 2017 when issues were found with smoke detectors, carbon monoxide alarms, fire extinguishers, and the fire alarm system, though these were all abated by November 2017.

The property's maintenance history shows regular attention to basic infrastructure, including a reroofing project in 2018 ($7,000) and a furnace replacement in 2011. However, there have been recurring issues with building systems and safety features, including multiple false fire alarms and system malfunctions recorded by the fire department. The most recent 311 calls from 2024 indicate ongoing concerns with garbage management and sidewalk maintenance around the property. The building's history also includes some structural and safety-related complaints from 2005 regarding a carport and cement slab that were reportedly affecting neighboring properties. While many historical violations have been addressed, the property continues to face challenges with building maintenance and resident safety, as evidenced by recent complaints and service requests.

Risk rating

How 2344-2348 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.
