Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1046 Jackson Street in Nob Hill, owned by Justice Lady Soriano, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1920. The property is currently facing compliance issues following a January 2024 internal audit that revealed several discrepancies between completed work and approved plans from a prior permit (PA201411242420). The violations, documented in an active Notice of Violation (NOV) filed in March 2024, pertain to various elements including streetside windows lacking dividers, missing transoms, an incomplete garage door installation, and the absence of approved steps and platform at an escape rescue window in the lowest unit's rear bedroom. In response to these violations, a building permit was issued in June 2024 to address the compliance issues, with work estimated to cost $2,500.

The property's recent history shows significant street cleaning and maintenance needs, particularly in late 2024 and early 2025, with multiple reports of garbage, debris, and glass on the property requiring intervention from various city services. There is currently one unresolved noise complaint from January 2025, and several moving-related applications that remain open from November 2024. A street space permit was issued in June 2019, and a related planning record was filed for 1042 Jackson Street, noting the same compliance work for window legalization and other improvements.

Risk rating

How 1042-1044 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.

Neighborhood percentile
98th percentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 22 are predicted to be safer.
