Initial analysis

This two-unit residential building, located at 1400 29th Avenue in San Francisco's Central Sunset neighborhood, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1945 and currently owned by Robert Jamal Eldabaje. The property has experienced significant recent activity, particularly during 2024-2025, with multiple reports of garbage and debris issues, including several incidents involving furniture and Christmas trees between September 2024 and January 2025, with Recology noting increased service demands during holiday periods. The property has also experienced some urban maintenance challenges, with recorded incidents of graffiti on public surfaces in late 2024, including the adjacent sidewalk and a fire/police callbox, though these were subsequently resolved.

The building's maintenance and infrastructure record shows some attention required for the surrounding area, with a pavement defect reported and resolved in September 2024, and one instance of sidewalk parking being addressed with a citation in August 2024. A notable tenant buyout occurred in August 2019, involving three tenants and totaling $21,000, though no subsequent tenant details are available in the recent historical record. The building's permit history is minimal, with only one recorded street space permit issued in July 2012 for a cost of $1.00.

Risk rating

How 1400 29Th 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
