Initial analysis

The two-story mixed-use building at 248-250 Taraval Street, constructed in 1940, contains three residential units plus commercial space, currently owned by Michael Musleh. The property has undergone several significant renovations in recent years, with major work taking place in late 2022 including electrical upgrades, demolition work, and insulation installation in the commercial space, which generated two building complaints regarding unauthorized construction hours and work without proper permits. Subsequently, proper permits were obtained for electrical upgrades, new plumbing fixtures including water heater and sinks, and commercial improvements such as new awnings. The building has a documented history of maintenance and repairs, including a roof replacement in 1993, fire damage repairs in 1992, and various plumbing improvements, most recently a house trap replacement in 2008.

Recent activity around the property has primarily involved external maintenance and compliance issues, with multiple reports of driveway blocking and garbage debris in 2024, though these do not directly impact building safety or resident experience. The property maintains an active commercial component, with a liquor license continuation approval for San Francisco Wine Trading. Planning records also show various improvements to the commercial space, while the building's residential units have remained stable, with no reported tenant buyouts since 2019. The building's infrastructure has been regularly maintained, with significant investments in modernization and compliance with current codes, though the 2022 incidents suggest some initial lapses in proper construction protocols that were subsequently addressed.

Risk rating

How 248-250 Taraval St'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.
