Initial analysis

The 10-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 720-730 Broderick Street in Park North, owned by Soleil Properties LLC, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1880. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story seismic retrofit in 2016 with a $60,000 concrete foundation improvement, achieving Tier 3 compliance with Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued. The property has maintained regular safety inspections, with the most recent inspection in 2024 noting pipe issues, and had completed various necessary repairs over the years, including substantial deck and stair repairs in 2004 and 2006 to address deterioration and safety concerns. In 2017, the building underwent electrical improvements including the installation of a Ufer ground system.

The property has experienced several maintenance and safety-related issues that have been addressed through appropriate channels. In 2006, a series of violations were documented regarding security, plumbing, and building safety, including requirements for fire extinguishers, proper water heaters, and secure entryways, all of which were abated by October 2006. More recent concerns have included mold (2017), appliance malfunctions (2009), and routine safety inspections. The building's recent history shows ongoing maintenance needs, particularly regarding garbage management, with multiple reports of overflowing city garbage cans and debris (most recently in 2024), though these are primarily street-related issues not directly affecting the building's interior conditions. Two fire complaints were recorded in 2010 and 2017, both found to have no merit.

Risk rating

How 720-730 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.

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.

Number of units

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

Building size

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

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 43.8%
Moderate concern 40.1%
Severe concern 16.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
