Initial analysis

This three-story, three-unit multi-family residential building at 1563-1565 Fulton Street in Park North was constructed in 1900 and has undergone several significant changes over its lifetime. Most notably, the building experienced a fire in 2016 that resulted in extensive damage, particularly to the third and fourth floors of the rear pop-out section. In the summer of 2019, comprehensive rehabilitation work was completed, including the installation of 88 fire sprinkler heads throughout the building, an upgraded fire alarm system with residential notification devices, and thorough electrical system improvements including new plugs, lights, switches, and a 400-amp service upgrade. The rehabilitation also included the replacement of fire-damaged exterior walls and new plumbing systems for the three-unit apartment building.

The property has a history of maintenance and regulatory attention, with several building violations recorded in 2002 related to interior surfaces, fire safety, and building systems, though these were all abated by March 2013. Recent activities at the property have primarily involved routine maintenance and compliance matters, with regular 311 calls regarding parking enforcement and street cleanliness. The building's tenant history includes multiple buyouts between 2016 and 2018, with significant payments totaling over $600,000 to tenants for unit relinquishments.

Risk rating

How 1563-1565 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
89th percentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 88 are predicted to be safer.

Final warnings, owner's portfolio

12-Month severity forecast

Severe concern 2.9%
