Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 316 Mississippi Street in Potrero Hill, owned by Austin & Mississippi LLC, was constructed in 1963 and has undergone several significant maintenance and safety inspections over the years. The building has a documented history of routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 1999, 2009, and 2015, indicating regular oversight of safety standards. Major infrastructure improvements include an underground service conversion completed in 2003 and a code compliance update in 1986. The property experienced a kitchen remodeling violation in 2005 that was resolved within a month, and it underwent reroofing in 2000.

In recent developments, there have been multiple street cleaning and maintenance reports in the vicinity of the building throughout 2024, primarily concerning garbage, debris, and sidewalk conditions, though most of these issues were promptly addressed and resolved by city services. The most recent building-related permits on record include a street space permit from 2011, while planning records show a closed informational status regarding discussions about an upper addition to the apartment building. The property appears to have maintained compliance with regular safety inspections, with no active building complaints as of the most recent records, though the last routine inspection was conducted in 2015.

Risk rating

How 316 Mississippi 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 726 buildings in this neighborhood, 138 are predicted to be safer.
