Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2309-2311 Broderick Street in Pacific Heights, owned by Kenneth G High Jr Trust, is a 3-story flats & duplex structure built in 1900. The property is currently undergoing significant permitted renovations as of June 2023, which include rebuilding a rotting two-story rear portion, replacing exterior stairs, adding a two-car garage, and constructing new living spaces including a media room, bathroom, and bedroom. This project has been approved with a variance to modify the required rear yard requirements, and will also address the previously documented concerns about the retaining wall at the south property line.

The building's maintenance history reveals several concerning issues over the years, including a 2017 complaint about a cracked and leaning retaining brick wall along the sidewalk, which was reported as potentially dangerous. Earlier maintenance concerns included a period of extended scaffolding installation in 1995, though this was resolved within weeks. The property has experienced various fire safety incidents, including false alarms and system activations, none of which resulted in injuries or confirmed fires. More recently, there have been multiple parking-related incidents recorded between 2019 and 2022, primarily involving vehicles blocking driveways. The building's maintenance record shows attention to roofing issues dating back to 1996, and the current renovation work represents a significant investment in improving the property's structural condition and modern amenities.

Risk rating

How 2309-2311 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
97th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 29 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 age

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

Building size

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

Director's hearings, owner's portfolio

Escalated DBI enforcement actions across all of this owner's buildings.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 85.2%
Moderate concern 12.1%
Severe concern 2.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
