Initial analysis

The three-story, 8-unit multi-family residential building at 3726 Broderick Street in the Marina neighborhood, owned by John Parodi, was constructed in 1964 and has undergone several significant improvements over recent years. Most notably, in 2023, the building completed a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade to meet current code requirements, installing 75db sounders in sleeping areas and updating the fire panel with compatible devices. The building experienced substantial water damage issues in September 2022, affecting multiple units (3, 5, 6, and 2), which required extensive drywall replacement work costing between $3,000 to $40,000 per unit, along with associated plumbing and electrical repairs. Unit 3 also underwent kitchen and bathroom remodeling during this period.

The property completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017, achieving compliance with seismic safety requirements, and has maintained regular updates to its systems, including a 100-gallon water heater replacement and various unit renovations (notably Unit 7's kitchen remodel in 2020). While there have been several building violations over the years related to fire safety, exits, and handrails (most notably in 2006 and 2016), these were all addressed and abated. The most recent boiler permit compliance issue was filed in May 2024 but was subsequently resolved by July 2024. Recent 311 calls have primarily concerned parking issues near the property, with some noise complaints recorded in late 2024, though these are not directly related to building conditions. The building has experienced typical urban challenges including a few minor incidents requiring fire department response, primarily related to smoke detector activations and water leaks, with no civilian injuries reported in any incidents.

Risk rating

How 3726 Broderick 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
37th percentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 622 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.

Number of units

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

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 31.4%
Moderate concern 52.9%
Severe concern 15.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
