Initial analysis

The property at 2417-2419 Folsom Street is a two-unit, two-story residential building constructed in 1906, currently owned by Parsons Trust. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including three roofing projects: a complete reroofing in 1996, followed by a larger reroofing in 2010 with additional plywood sheathing installation, collectively costing over $13,250. In 2004, the building's electrical system was upgraded through the conversion from overhead to underground service. The property has experienced two notable building complaints on record - one in 1997 regarding code violations in the backstairs and ceiling issues, and another in 2014 concerning improper paint scraping procedures affecting neighboring property.

Recent activity around the property has primarily involved external issues rather than building-specific concerns. Between 2022 and 2024, there have been multiple reports of parking violations, particularly blocking bicycle lanes, with four such incidents recorded, and one report of driveway blocking. Two incidents of human or animal waste were reported near the property in early 2024, both of which were investigated and found to have no issues. Additionally, there was a flooding incident on the street near the property in June 2023 that was resolved by PUC Sewer Operations. The building's exterior has faced some maintenance challenges, including a graffiti incident in August 2023 that was not deemed offensive and a flooding issue in June 2023, though both were addressed by appropriate city services.

Risk rating

How 2417-2419 Folsom 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.
