Initial analysis

The property at 4371 17th Street in Corona Heights is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1927 and currently owned by JRM Financial LLC. The building has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2018, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in both units, installation of washers and dryers, and furnace upgrades, collectively costing approximately $170,000. During this renovation period, there was one complaint filed regarding unauthorized work and noise issues in October 2018, though this complaint is currently listed as not active. A notable attempted improvement was the 2019 permit application for the legalization of an accessory dwelling unit above the detached garage facing 17th Street, which was ultimately cancelled.

The building's maintenance and compliance history includes the successful completion of several major infrastructure upgrades, such as the installation of a new furnace system in 1997 and a private parking garage construction project in 1994. Recent building-related activities include a 2025 building inspection request and an open 2024 complaint regarding an overgrown tree. The property has experienced various neighborhood maintenance issues typical for the area, including sidewalk defects, parking violations, and street cleaning needs, though most of these have been resolved through municipal intervention. Additionally, a significant tenant buyout occurred in July 2018, involving an amount of $87,030.28 for two tenants.

Risk rating

How 4371 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.
