Initial analysis

The 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building at 349 14th Avenue in the Central Richmond district, built in 1911 and currently owned by the Milano Family 2013 Revocable Trust, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over its history. Recent concerns include a series of sewage backup incidents in late 2024 and early 2025, with multiple reports of discharges from side sewer vents and catch basins. In late 2022, there was a serious hoarding situation reported in one of the units that raised health and safety concerns, particularly regarding shared ventilation with an adjacent unit, including a couple with a newborn child. The building has undergone several major renovation attempts and safety improvements over the years, including fire sprinkler installations in the early 1990s, staircase repairs in 1996, and various permits related to code compliance and illegal modifications between 1997 and 2010, including the removal of an illegal kitchen and issues with an unauthorized balcony.

The property has faced multiple fire safety concerns, most recently resulting in violations in January 2023 for blocked exits and improper storage of combustible materials, though these issues were subsequently abated. A cluster of smoke detector-related violations in 2001 indicates past fire safety compliance challenges, though these were resolved within a few months. The building's permit history shows a pattern of addressing code compliance issues, with permits from the 1980s through the late 1990s focused on various repairs and safety upgrades. A series of 311 calls in recent months (2024-2025) primarily relates to sewage issues, with multiple cases being resolved through field work. While the property has experienced recurring maintenance challenges, particularly regarding sewer systems and fire safety, many historical violations have been addressed through permits and corrective actions, though the frequency of recent sewage issues suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges.

Risk rating

How 349 14Th 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
