Initial analysis

The property at 439-441 Lincoln Way is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Inner Sunset neighborhood, owned by Leoni Marguerite Mary and constructed in 1925. The building has undergone several significant renovations and infrastructure improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major updates occurring between 2018-2019, including HVAC system upgrades (furnace and duct replacement), sewer replacement, and associated electrical work. The building received substantial structural attention in 2008-2009, with work focused on the rear walls including foundation capping, window removal, and framing updates. Earlier improvements were made in 2002, involving kitchen and bathroom renovations in both units, while basic maintenance like roofing was addressed in 1996.

The property has maintained essential systems with regular upgrades including water heater installations in 2013 and winter-related infrastructure improvements in 2019. The building's maintenance record shows attention to both safety and comfort systems, with HVAC and plumbing updates being the most frequent types of improvements. The surrounding area has experienced typical urban issues documented through 311 calls, with relatively few concerns directly impacting the property itself. Recent 311 calls have primarily related to street-level issues such as parking enforcement, sidewalk maintenance, and occasional graffiti, though these have generally been resolved promptly through appropriate city agencies. The building's permit history suggests a well-maintained property with regular updates to critical systems, though the 1996 roofing permit appears to have expired without record of completion.

Risk rating

How 439-441 Lincoln Way'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.
