Initial analysis

The property at 111-115 8th Avenue is a 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1902, currently owned by Yogesh Mehta and Rajagopal Us. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being plumbing updates in 2015 (replacement of housetrap on sidewalk) and a 2009 sewer line replacement. Between 2008-2009, multiple maintenance and improvement projects were completed, including window replacements (four energy-efficient windows), deck repairs, garage door replacement, and street space/sidewalk repairs. The building has experienced several code compliance issues, particularly in the early 2000s, with violations related to unauthorized deck and plumbing work in 2001-2002, though these were eventually abated.

More recent concerns primarily involve parking violations, with multiple citations issued between late 2023 and early 2024 for sidewalk parking issues, though these are external to the building itself. There was also a noise complaint filed in August 2022 regarding construction activity, and a fence-related complaint in July 2008, but both these issues were marked as not active. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including a kitchen renovation and closet modifications in the early 2000s, and various repairs to address weather-related damage. The property has maintained compliance with building codes since the resolution of the 2001-2002 violations, with no active building or plumbing violations on record as of the most recent data.

Risk rating

How 111-115 8Th Ave'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 660 buildings in this neighborhood, 548 are predicted to be safer.
