Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 346-348 Lexington Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Michael L. Almond, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1880 as a two-story flats and duplex structure. Recent activity includes a July 2023 permit for work valued at $18,000 to comply with inspection report CC# 8613, suggesting some compliance-related improvements were necessary. The property has experienced ongoing concerns regarding unpermitted work, with multiple complaints filed in 2021-2023 alleging unauthorized kitchen and bathroom renovations, electrical work, and exterior painting. These violations appear to have been addressed through subsequent permits, including a 2022 window and door replacement project valued at $9,800. The building has seen substantial system upgrades, including two installations of tankless water heaters (2010 and 2022), a bathroom remodel in Unit B (2021), and comprehensive electrical updates involving new fixtures and appliances for both units (2010).

Historical maintenance records show various structural and safety improvements, such as rear deck repairs (2009), sidewalk repairs (2009), and a reroofing project (2000). The property underwent condominium conversion approval processes in the 2000s, with records indicating successful conversion to two condominium units. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to street-related issues outside the property, including parking violations and sidewalk cleaning matters, rather than building-specific concerns. While the property has experienced some regulatory scrutiny regarding construction practices and permit compliance, the owners appear to have made efforts to bring the building up to code through subsequent permits and improvements, as evidenced by the July 2023 permit addressing compliance requirements.

Risk rating

How 346-348 Lexington 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.
