Initial analysis

The property at 12873 W Kagel Canyon St in Pacoima is a 2-unit building constructed in 1939 and currently owned by Rito and Luz Perez. The building has experienced several notable events over the past decade, with particular attention to recent developments. Most concerning are the three service requests in April 2026 marked as "Service Not Complete," suggesting ongoing issues that required follow-up attention. Additionally, there was a Private Property Violation reported in March 2026 and a closed case regarding illegal dumping in the same month. The building has a documented history of code enforcement interactions, with two general code investigations in 2023 and 2021, and three proactive code enforcement actions in May 2012. A significant historical concern was logged in 2021 regarding a garage converted to a dwelling, which was treated as a Priority 1 issue. The property has generated a relatively high number of service requests over the past seven years, totaling 48 through the 311 system, though not all these requests indicate serious problems. While the building's age and twin unit configuration are typical for the Pacoima neighborhood, the recent escalation in service requests and multiple code investigations warrant attention, particularly regarding the "Service Not Complete" cases from April 2026.

Risk rating

How 12873 W Kagel Canyon St'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.

Neighborhood percentile
86thpercentile

Out of 343 buildings in this neighborhood, 48 are predicted to be safer.
