Initial analysis

The Linda Turner Trust owns this two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located at 4159-4161 17th Street in Corona Heights. Built in 1908, this flats and duplex structure has undergone several significant renovations over the past two decades, with the most substantial work occurring in 2015. That year, the building received comprehensive updates including kitchen and bathroom renovations in both units ($35,000), plumbing system improvements (replacement of water piping with copper throughout, relocation of water heaters to the garage, new gas lines, and plumbing for kitchens and baths), electrical upgrades, and a new roof installation ($10,975). The property had previously undergone improvements in 2012, focusing on the remodel of two rear laundry porches, including window replacements, drywall work, and new cabinets.

Recent activity at the property has primarily consisted of maintenance and administrative matters. There have been no significant building code violations or safety concerns reported in the available data. The most recent permits relate to routine maintenance such as street space usage. A series of 311 calls from 2023-2024 primarily concern street-level issues outside the building, including reports of garbage and debris, pavement defects, and cleaning needs, which appear to be municipal rather than building-related concerns. These exterior maintenance issues have all been resolved through appropriate city services. The building's interior systems have been thoroughly updated, with records showing comprehensive work on plumbing, electrical systems, and structural elements during the 2015 and 2012 renovation periods, suggesting that major systems are current and well-maintained.

Risk rating

How 4159-4161 17Th 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.
