Initial analysis

The 603-609 Jackson Street property, located in San Francisco's Financial District North, is a 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, containing 7 units and currently owned by Kr & Aj LLC. The building has experienced several significant fire safety concerns in recent months, with multiple fire code violations documented between March and December 2024, including issues with alarm systems, sleeping area requirements, and multiple violations in December 2024. These violations follow a pattern of fire safety challenges, including the withdrawal of a 2023 permit application for a boba shop conversion with various upgrades and the building's notable lack of a complete fire sprinkler system. Historical records show past fire safety issues, including a 2010 installation of automatic fire suppression for the exhaust hood and various fire-related violations in 2023-2024 that required corrections, though most were abated following inspections.

The building's maintenance history exhibits periods of concern, particularly in the early 2000s, with multiple violations related to smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, plumbing issues, and security requirements, all of which were eventually abated. Recent 311 calls from January 2025 show various maintenance issues, including a damaged side sewer vent cover and graffiti, though many were resolved promptly. The property's recent history includes routine safety inspections and multiple fire code violation citations between 2023-2024, suggesting ongoing fire safety compliance challenges. While some historical issues date back to 2002-2008 have been resolved, the building's current status indicates persistent fire safety concerns that require attention, as evidenced by frequent fire-related violations throughout 2023-2024.

Risk rating

How 603-609 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.
