Initial analysis

1030 Post Street is a five-story, 64-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1913, currently owned by Kdf Post Street Lp. The property has experienced significant recent challenges, most notably a fire incident in July 2023 that resulted in extensive damage. Following the fire, the building underwent major repairs, including work on 19 units on the 4th and 5th floors, with permits issued in March 2024 showing a $1.7 million investment in fire and water damage repairs, including roof repairs and replacement of steel frames. The building is currently undergoing comprehensive electrical upgrades, with permits issued in October 2024 for rewiring multiple units (501-514) to meet current code specifications.

Recent complaints and violations indicate ongoing maintenance and safety concerns. In late 2024, there was an active complaint regarding an unpermitted fire alarm retrofit, and earlier complaints from 2023 documented issues with pest infestations (rodents and insects), elevator outages affecting disabled residents, and concerns about water damage and mold. Historical violations from 2010 showed various issues including water damage, electrical problems, and interior surface maintenance needs, though these were eventually abated. The building has experienced multiple elevator outages affecting residents, particularly problematic in a five-story building with many seniors. Fire safety compliance appears to be an ongoing concern, with the most recent violation regarding sleeping area requirements issued in October 2023. The property underwent structural improvements in 2008, including brace frame installations, and received a new roof in 2019, suggesting some investment in the building's infrastructure over the years.

Risk rating

How 1030 Post 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
