Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 26 Ramona Avenue in Mission Dolores is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1912, currently owned by Louie Happy. The building's maintenance history shows proper attention to structural upkeep, with two documented roof projects: a completed reroofing in 2018 costing $10,000, and an earlier expired permit from 1996. A special incident involving an outside fire was recorded, though with no civilian injuries reported. More recent issues worthy of note include multiple open cases from 2024, particularly regarding amplified sound and sidewalk defects attributed to tree roots. The property has experienced recurring urban maintenance challenges in the surrounding area, with several 311 calls between 2019-2024 related to street cleaning, loose garbage, and tree maintenance. While most historical issues have been resolved through proper channels, the ongoing noise and sidewalk concerns from 2024 could impact current resident experience.

Risk rating

How 26 Ramona 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.
