Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1023-1025 Broderick Street in the Anza Vista neighborhood, owned by Raymond J. Smets, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1908. The building underwent significant structural improvements in 2003, including the installation of a new garage in the basement and additional steel and concrete work, with a total cost of $14,000 for these improvements. In 2017, there was an electrical survey conducted to assess work on existing sub panels, though earlier electrical work for new lights and switch from 2003 had expired without completion.

The property has experienced recurring sewer-related issues, with the most recent incident occurring in June 2024 involving a sewage back-up discharge from a side sewer vent, which was resolved through field work. The building had several infrastructure maintenance needs in recent years, including a collapsed sidewalk in November 2020 involving a damaged Pacific Bell utility vault. The property has also had multiple street cleaning and waste management interventions, with several reports of general cleaning needs and waste issues documented between 2020 and 2023. Parking-related incidents have been recorded, including issues with blocking driveways and sidewalk parking, with the most recent occurring in 2022. While the building's structural improvements from 2003 were substantial, more recent electrical work and plumbing maintenance suggest ongoing infrastructure management requirements.

Risk rating

How 1023-1025 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.
