Initial analysis

The Chau Family Trust-owned property at 1033-1035 Judah Street is an 8-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, consisting of two units and constructed in 1945. The building's maintenance record shows several improvements over the years, including interior work in 1998 when sheetrock was added to separate an existing utility room, and exterior maintenance in 1987 when vinyl siding (Alsid) was applied to the rear wall of the building. More recently, in October 2013, comprehensive plumbing updates were undertaken to modernize the unit's facilities, including the replacement of a kitchen sink, bathroom fixtures, and modifications to the gas line for the range.

The property's recent history has been relatively uneventful from a structural and maintenance perspective, with only minor external issues reported. The most recent service requests have primarily concerned exterior elements, including a graffiti removal case in September 2024 related to a historic street light and an offensive graffiti incident on a pole in October 2017, both of which were resolved by municipal services. An August 2023 general service request to the Department of Public Works was also resolved, though specific details of the request were not documented. The building's maintenance record suggests regular upkeep of both interior and exterior components when necessary, with no recorded violations or safety concerns in recent years.

Risk rating

How 1033-1035 Judah 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 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 761 are predicted to be safer.
