Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 8-10 Parsons Street in Lone Mountain, owned by Linda Harris, was constructed in 1906 and has undergone several significant improvements over the years. The property received substantial structural upgrades in 2001, including the replacement of a substandard foundation with new reinforced concrete, installation of new framing and siding, and concrete cap work, representing a considerable investment of approximately $42,000 in foundation-related improvements. Other maintenance work has included reroofing in 2001 (permit now expired) and various system upgrades such as a 200-amp electrical service upgrade in 2003, gas fireplace installation in 2008, and new gas supply lines.

The building's more recent history shows no significant internal structural or safety issues, though there have been multiple parking-related incidents documented through 311 calls. Between 2018 and 2024, there were numerous reports of sidewalk parking violations in the vicinity, with officers responding to at least nine documented incidents, resulting in several citations and some cases of vehicles being unable to be located. Of particular note, there was a tenant buyout at an adjacent property (17 Parsons Street) in June 2024, with one tenant receiving $80,000, though this transaction does not directly pertain to the subject property. The most recent building-related activity on record was a construction equipment blocking complaint in 2018, which was deemed invalid for enforcement purposes.

Risk rating

How 8-10 Parsons 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
59th percentile

Out of 519 buildings in this neighborhood, 213 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 81.2%
Moderate concern 12.8%
Severe concern 6.0%
