Initial analysis

The property at 49 Caselli Avenue, located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood, is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1912, currently owned by Ashutosh Jhaveri. The building underwent significant renovations in 2013, including foundation replacement, creation of new habitable spaces, complete rewiring, installation of a fire sprinkler system, and various plumbing and mechanical upgrades totaling approximately $318,000. Several building complaints were filed during this period, including concerns about unauthorized window installations, a parking pad/driveway construction, and complaints about work proceeding beyond the scope of permits, though these issues appear to have been addressed through subsequent permit revisions and compliance work.

The property has experienced some maintenance and compliance issues in recent years, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2022-2024 regarding waste management (toter containers left out), tree maintenance concerns, and recurring driveway blocking incidents. Notably, there are open issues regarding a tree with potentially damaging roots affecting the sidewalk (reported December 2022) and a complaint about property damage from tree roots (reported January 2023). The building's fire safety record shows one alarm system activation with no fire or injuries recorded. Recent permits indicate some ongoing maintenance work, including street space and sidewalk repairs completed in 2013, though many permits from this extensive renovation period have since been marked as complete or withdrawn.

Risk rating

How 49 Caselli 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.
