AI summary

This three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located at 2315 Broadway in Pacific Heights was built in 1900 and is currently owned by Residence Marital Deduction Trust. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and infrastructure projects over the past five years, particularly during 2018 when multiple permits were issued and completed, including substantial maintenance of exterior elements such as repairs to dry rot wood members in the concrete fence wall, replacement of concrete stairs and handrails, and work on the garage space involving a steel beam replacement and general cosmetic repairs totaling over $130,000. The building experienced sewer-related issues in 2023, with multiple sewage backup incidents reported between March and October of that year, including flooding and drain pipe modifications that were subsequently addressed through plumbing permits.

More recent developments include the successful replacement of the house trap and 10 feet of pipe to the property line in February 2022, and historical records show various infrastructure improvements such as the installation of new PG&E meters and associated gas line rerouting in 2018. The building has experienced multiple unintentional fire alarm system activations recorded in the fire incident database, though none resulted in fires or civilian injuries. While there was one construction noise complaint filed in April 2018 regarding contractor behavior and pedestrian access, this complaint is no longer active. The property has had several street space permits issued between 2014 and 2018, suggesting regular utilization of public thoroughfares for various maintenance activities. The most recent 311 calls related to the address primarily concern parking issues and one instance of flooding in late 2023, though many of these complaints could not be validated by responding officers.

Risk rating

How 2315 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
84th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 154 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.

Building size

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

Building age

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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 70.4%
Moderate concern 18.9%
Severe concern 10.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
