Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 1027-1031 Broadway in Nob Hill, currently owned by Anton Karidian LLC, was constructed in 1924 and contains four units. The building has undergone several significant maintenance activities over the years, including two reroofing projects—one in 1999 (permit expired) and a more recent one in 2015 costing $12,800. A notable cluster of fire safety violations was recorded in August 2008, including issues with rooftop electrical conduit, fire escape accessibility, fire escape inspection requirements, and a self-closing fire-rated penthouse door, though all these violations were abated by October 2008. The building underwent routine safety inspections in 2000, 2001, 2016, and most recently in 2020 when it was found to be not active.

The property experienced some infrastructure maintenance issues in 2000, including problems with door closures, water heater flues, fire extinguishers, and combustible storage, all of which were resolved by April 2000. More recent activities include a tenant buyout in October 2023 involving two tenants for $39,000. The building's current external environment has seen multiple reports of abandoned vehicles in the vicinity between 2022 and 2025, with the most recent being in January 2025, though these are external issues not directly affecting the building's condition. A noise complaint related to entertainment was filed in October 2023, which was determined to be invalid. The property appears to have maintained compliance with safety regulations since the resolution of the 2008 violations, with regular inspections showing no active violations.

Risk rating

How 1027-1031 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.
