Initial analysis

The duplex building at 2368-2370 Fulton Street, located in the Lone Mountain neighborhood, is a two-story, multi-family residential structure built in 1908 and currently owned by Frank C. Yao and May H. Zuo. The property has undergone several significant changes and faced multiple compliance issues over the years. Most notably, a permit was filed in March 2023 to convert an existing playroom into a junior ADU, adding a kitchen and converting a half bath into a full bath, though this process remains in the filed status as of the latest records. The building has a documented history of water-related issues, including a 2016 complaint about ceiling water damage from toilet overflow, and multiple instances of plumbing problems through the years.

The property experienced several building code violations in July 2002, including unauthorized construction of additional bathrooms and a third unit, water leakage issues, and various stair repairs. These violations were addressed through various permits and repairs, including a $25,000 project in 2006 to legalize ground floor rooms and a sewer lateral replacement in 2016. The building's maintenance history shows regular updates, including a reroofing project completed in 2011 at a cost of $7,800. Recent maintenance concerns have included multiple instances of graffiti on and around the property between 2020 and 2023, though these are external issues not directly related to building safety or habitability. The most recent building modification work, initiated in 2023, proposes significant interior changes, including the addition of a kitchen and conversion of bathroom facilities, though these modifications were still in filed status as of the latest updates.

Risk rating

How 2368-2370 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.
