Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 630 Broderick Street in Park North, owned by Cathy and Michael Posey, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including a complete kitchen and bathroom remodel of both units in 1997 (though this permit expired), followed by a horizontal addition later that same year, and most recently, a $16,000 reroofing project completed in 2007. A notable infrastructure issue occurred in February 2012 when a streetlight on a wooden pole near the property required replacement of its 100W lamp and photocell equipment.

The building's maintenance and street conditions appear generally well-managed, with only one recorded incident involving water or steam leak that resulted in no civilian injuries. However, there has been a persistent pattern of parking-related disturbances near the property, with four reported incidents of sidewalk parking or blocked driveway issues between 2021 and 2024, none of which resulted in locating the offending vehicles. The surrounding area has experienced occasional street cleaning issues, with three documented cases between 2013 and 2014 involving graffiti removal, general cleaning, and waste removal, all of which were properly resolved. The most recent service request was recorded in April 2024 for illegal parking, though this incident also ended with officers unable to locate the offending vehicle.

Risk rating

How 630 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

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 239 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.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

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 69.2%
Moderate concern 17.6%
Severe concern 13.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
