Initial analysis

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 3950-3956 Fulton Street in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Nazar Properties II LLC, has undergone several significant maintenance and upgrade projects since its construction in 1919. The most recent major improvement was the installation of a new 200-amp, 5-meter electrical service in March 2020, which represents a substantial infrastructure upgrade. Prior to this, in 2016, there was a permitted repair of the exterior rear stairway, and in 1983, the building underwent work to bring it into compliance with building codes. While the reroofing permit from 1998 and other permits from 1985 are now expired, the completion of the 2016 stairway repair and 2020 electrical upgrade demonstrates ongoing maintenance of the property.

The building has maintained a relatively clean record regarding housing complaints, with only two routine inspections reported in 2002 and 2011, both of which were promptly resolved. Recent activity around the building has primarily involved external issues such as street cleaning and maintenance, with several 311 calls in 2024 relating to garbage debris, graffiti (primarily on mailboxes), and abandoned vehicles in the vicinity. These external issues, while numerous, are mostly street-related matters rather than building-specific problems, and many have been resolved or transferred to the appropriate authorities for handling. There has been only one recorded fire incident, which was a medical assist situation with no civilian injuries reported, indicating no significant fire safety concerns for the building itself.

Risk rating

How 3950-3956 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
13th percentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 1958 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.

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 62.7%
Moderate concern 19.5%
Severe concern 17.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
