Initial analysis

The property at 195-199 Broad Street in Oceanview is a two-story mixed-use building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Acebey Tary H & Albarracin. The building has undergone several significant changes over the past decades, most notably a 2017 administrative permit correction that officially documented the occupancy as having two residential units and two commercial spaces. In 2015, there was an attempt (later cancelled) to convert commercial space into two residential units on the first floor, while earlier renovations in 2008 involved substantial repairs including addressing dry rot, bathroom and kitchen updates, and insulation work. More recently, complaints have emerged in 2023 regarding vacant commercial storefront registration requirements, which remains active, continuing a pattern of commercial vacancy issues that resulted in multiple violation notices between 2018-2020.

The building's recent history has been marked by various maintenance and compliance challenges, including a notable complaint in 2008 about unpermitted work involving wall removal and asbestos removal. The property has experienced recurring issues with vacant commercial space fines, particularly between 2019-2020, with these concerns seemingly persisting into 2023. The area around the building has faced various public maintenance challenges in 2024, including reports of sidewalk defects, graffiti, and street cleaning issues, though these are external to the building itself. While the building's fundamental structure appears to have received necessary maintenance through various permits and repairs, the ongoing concerns about vacant storefront compliance and recent external maintenance issues suggest areas requiring continued attention.

Risk rating

How 195-199 Broad 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 79 buildings in this neighborhood, 76 are predicted to be safer.
