Initial analysis

The three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 1809 Broadway in Pacific Heights, owned by the Marky Lynn Quayle Living Trust, has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure improvements since its construction in 1900. Most notably, the building completed mandatory soft-story retrofitting in 2017 at a cost of $85,000, receiving the required CFC and demonstrating compliance with modern seismic safety standards. Recent electrical improvements include the installation of a new Ufer ground system in 2017 and various electrical hazard corrections in 2011, suggesting ongoing attention to building safety systems. The property has a documented history of maintenance and safety issues, particularly relating to mold, ventilation, and electrical systems. Between 2002 and 2013, multiple violations were recorded regarding mold/mildew problems, window issues, and electrical hazards, though all these violations were ultimately abated by January 2007. The building's plumbing and electrical systems have received various updates over the years, including a fire alarm panel replacement in 2005 and electrical alterations in 2004.

More recent history shows generally routine maintenance with fewer major violations. The building underwent regular inspections in 2011 and 2007, and while there was a fire complaint in 2020 regarding operating without a permit, this was promptly corrected within one day. The property has had several temporary sign requests for moving residential property in 2013 and 2014, as well as some routine maintenance issues addressed through 311 calls. These recent maintenance requests have primarily focused on exterior items such as overgrown trees and street cleaning, rather than internal building systems. The building's historical repairs and improvements, including roof work in 1997, gutter work in 1993, and various interior renovations, indicate ongoing attention to building maintenance, though potential tenants should be aware of the property's history with moisture-related issues and electrical system updates.

Risk rating

How 1809 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.

Neighborhood percentile
58th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 404 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

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

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Permit rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building permit rate across the owner's portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 47.9%
Moderate concern 16.9%
Severe concern 35.3%
