Initial analysis

The 4-unit residential building at 18540 W Parthenia St in Northridge, owned by Bettar, Austin J Jr Co Tr Et Al, has been standing since 1964. Over the past seven years, the property has generated 28 service requests through the MyLA311 system, with an alarming concentration of recent graffiti-related issues. In 2026 alone, there have already been multiple graffiti removal requests, with work orders created in October and December 2025, and new requests in March 2026. The building's maintenance history shows relatively minimal intervention, with only six building permits recorded in the past seven years. The most recent permit submission from October 2023 pertains to the "Termination of Covenant for Lot Tie," which was still undergoing verification as of the report date. A historical service request from 2011 regarding overgrown or excessive vegetation was recorded and subsequently closed, though given its age, this issue may no longer be relevant to current residents.

Risk rating

How 18540 W Parthenia 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.
