Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 220-224 Broderick Street in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood, owned by Raul & Denise Arriaza, has a documented history dating back to its construction in 1904. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and safety-related events over the years, with the most notable issues occurring during a major violation period in late 2007 through early 2013. During this time, multiple citations were issued regarding safety concerns, including problems with exterior walls, sanitation, fire safety equipment, gas utility readiness, possible lead paint hazards, and the need for handrails and painting. These violations were all ultimately abated by February 2013. More recent concerns have included structural issues, with a 2012 complaint about a potentially collapsing fence and retaining wall, and an earlier incident in 2009 involving safety concerns about a rotting back porch and stairs. The building has received routine inspections and maintenance work over the years, including reroofing in 1992 and various compliance improvements in 1986. Two minor 311 calls were registered in recent years (2017 and 2022), related to graffiti on a sign and sidewalk parking issues, respectively, though these were not directly related to building safety or maintenance.

Risk rating

How 220-224 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 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 349 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building age

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

Director's hearing rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building rate of director's hearings across the owner's portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 71.3%
Moderate concern 19.5%
Severe concern 9.1%
