Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 947-949 Broderick Street in Park North, owned by Salimi Farshin Stephan, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1910. The property has undergone numerous improvements and maintenance projects over the past three decades, with significant work performed in recent years. Most notably, a major renovation was initiated in 2018-2019, including the installation of structural improvements to the east/west front and back crawl space cripple walls, and the replacement of non-conforming staircases. Plumbing and electrical upgrades were completed during this period, including bathroom remodels and drainage improvements. A significant maintenance issue occurred in 2006, when multiple violations were recorded regarding heating, mold/mildew, lead paint concerns, and weatherproofing, though these were all abated by November 2006. The building has maintained relatively few complaints in recent years, with the most recent tenant buyout in September 2024 totaling $118,100.14 for 2 tenants, and current planning records show an under-review project for potential conversion to add living space and possibly create a third unit. Recent 311 calls have primarily concerned parking issues and occasional maintenance matters, including a 2019 sewage backup incident and a sidewalk defect in 2022 that was promptly addressed.

Risk rating

How 947-949 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
64th percentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 287 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.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 74.0%
Moderate concern 18.3%
Severe concern 7.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
