Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 317 Mississippi Street in Potrero Hill, owned by Barbara Jo Ellen Tice, is a two-story flats and duplex structure dating back to 1909. The property has undergone two significant structural improvements over its lifetime: in 1995, the building received a foundation upgrade with the replacement of its brick foundation and installation of new concrete footings, and in 2004, the electrical system was modernized with the installation of new service and meters, including a switch to underground power infrastructure with 200-amp service capability.

The building's street and sidewalk maintenance history shows several cleaning incidents over recent years, with multiple reports of loose garbage requiring attention between 2017 and 2021. Most of these cases were successfully resolved through pickup or cleaning, though some were categorized as "nothing found" or "other." Notably, there was one reported incident of medical waste (needles) in September 2019, which was also resolved with no items found at the reported location. The consistency of these cleaning-related incidents suggests an ongoing need for attention to street maintenance in the immediate vicinity, though it's worth noting that all reported issues were addressed through appropriate channels. The building's infrastructure improvements, particularly the foundation work and electrical system upgrade, indicate proactive maintenance of essential building systems, though no recent structural or electrical work has been documented in the past several years.

Risk rating

How 317 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.
