Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1172-1174 Broadway in Russian Hill, owned by the Reilly Family Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1907. The property has undergone several significant renovations over the past two decades, with the most substantial work occurring in 2000 when a $180,000 project converted the basement into a garage and living area while remodeling bathrooms and kitchens on the second and third floors. In 2003, a $15,000 addition of a roof deck and spiral staircase was implemented, followed by a $7,000 renewal of this work in 2005. The building has maintained its basic structure and function as a multi-family residence without any major structural issues on record.

The property experienced a heat-related complaint in October 1998 that was resolved within two weeks, and while there have been numerous 311 calls related to the property address, most are not directly associated with building conditions. Recent external concerns include an overgrown tree blocking the sidewalk (reported June 2024) and a driveway blockage by a vehicle (November 2023). The location has seen recurring issues with abandoned vehicles in the vicinity between 2017 and 2023, though these were not directly related to the building's condition or management. The most recent building permit activity was recorded in 2013 for street space usage, with a cost of $1.00, though this is likely a minimal administrative fee.

Risk rating

How 1172-1174 Broadway'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 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 374 are predicted to be safer.
