Initial analysis

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1134 Jackson Street in Nob Hill, owned by Toms & Jeannie Soo Hoo Rev, has undergone significant improvements over the past few years, with major focus on safety and structural maintenance. Most recently, in late 2024, the property completed upgrades to its fire alarm system including the addition of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas, along with plumbing work involving drain line replacements. Earlier in 2023, the building underwent substantial maintenance including dry rot repairs and siding restoration work totaling $50,000, as well as the repair of two stairs and roof deck railings. The building has also completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit, achieving compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements.

The property's maintenance history shows proactive attention to safety systems, with upgrades to fire safety equipment and plumbing infrastructure. Historical records from 2000-2002 indicate several violations related to fire safety and plumbing systems, including issues with combustible storage and expired fire extinguishers, though these were promptly addressed within weeks of being cited. Routine safety inspections have been conducted in 2000, 2002, 2008, and 2016, indicating regular oversight of building conditions. Recent 311 calls (2017-2024) show typical urban building challenges including reports of graffiti, parking issues, and occasional debris, though these are primarily external to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 1134 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
41th percentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 664 are predicted to be safer.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Number of permits pulled at this address — construction or renovation activity over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 23.6%
Moderate concern 50.9%
Severe concern 25.5%
