Initial analysis

The property at 10209 N Samoa Ave in Tujunga is a 4-unit building currently owned by Angel P Tr Samvalian, though significant recent activity suggests it may be undergoing substantial changes. The building has witnessed considerable permitted development work, with building permits issued in 2020 for a new 3-story Type III-A construction containing 11 units over a Type IIII-A basement parking garage, complete with NFPA-13 fire sprinklers throughout. This major construction project, valued at over $4.1 million, was accompanied by permits for temporary shoring and grading work in what is designated as a Hillside Grading Area, demonstrating significant investment in the property's transformation.

Risk rating

How 10209 N Samoa Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of LA County code enforcement data — code enforcement cases, building & safety requests, foreclosure registrations, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that LA County will open a code enforcement case at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

LA County rarely opens code cases 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. LA County has opened cases here before and is statistically likely to again.
