Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 3444-3446 Broderick Street, located in San Francisco's Marina neighborhood, was constructed in 1926 and is currently owned by James G. Maxwell and C. Beckman. The building's maintenance record shows several significant improvements over the past three decades, including a complete roof replacement with a modified bitumen system in 2013 (valued at $15,000), repair of front brick steps and stucco in 1990, foundation sill bolting work in 1992, and a 2002 repair of an existing tradesway stairway. While most of these structural improvements are now dated, they represent important maintenance milestones for the building.

The property has experienced a notable pattern of parking-related issues in recent months, with eight separate reports of driveway blocking between February and June 2024, though enforcement officers were often unable to locate the offending vehicles. Other recent incidents include a pavement defect that remains open as of March 2024, and general cleaning issues such as loose garbage (resolved). The building's location has also experienced some typical urban challenges, including graffiti removal (November 2024), driveway blocking incidents, and a temporary encampment situation that was reported but could not be located. The most recent building permit activity on record is from 2013, suggesting that no major structural improvements or renovations have been undertaken in the past decade.

Risk rating

How 3444-3446 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.
