Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 966-968 Jackson Street in Nob Hill, owned by the Yook Goon Lew Revocable Trust, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1928. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, with the most recent being the permitted replacement of seven street-facing windows with aluminum clad wood double hung windows, a project valued at $16,000 scheduled for implementation in late 2024. In 2018, a comprehensive kitchen remodel was completed, including new cabinets, countertops, drywall, tiles, and window replacements, along with associated plumbing and electrical work, totaling approximately $45,000 across two separate permits issued in 2016 and 2018. Earlier improvements include reroofing work completed in 2005 and the proper closure of a 1998 sewer backup incident that was resolved within three weeks.

The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep, with most recent permits focusing on exterior window improvements. Two street space permits were issued in 2008 and 2016, though their specific purposes were not detailed in the records. The property has generated minimal complaints or enforcement actions, with only one historical plumbing-related issue from 1998 and two recent 311 calls in 2023-2024, neither of which indicated any building-related problems. The most recent communication with the Rent Board in February 2024 was resolved promptly as a duplicate notice issue, and a parking enforcement request in September 2023 was marked as invalid due to incomplete submission information.

Risk rating

How 966-968 Jackson 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.
