Initial analysis

The single-story multi-family residential building at 117 Felton St in Portola, owned by Miriam A Muscat Sep Prpty T, has a documented history of both maintenance and some neighborhood concerns. The property, constructed in 1915 and classified as Flats & Duplex, underwent significant structural work in 2010 when dry-rot issues were addressed on the west side wall of the garage. This repair was accompanied by necessary electrical and gas line modifications, including the installation of a new 100-amp service. More recently, in 2024, the building received a substantial $32,000 reroofing project, which has been completed.

The most notable recent activity pertains to multiple service requests regarding garbage and debris between January 2024 and September 2024, with several cases involving loose garbage, furniture, and holiday waste being reported and resolved. There were also two parking-related incidents in February 2024 involving either sidewalk parking or blocked driveways, though responding officers were either unable to locate the vehicles or issued advisements. An open case from September 2024 regarding garbage and debris remains unresolved as of the latest available data. While the building's major structural issues appear to have been successfully addressed through appropriate permits and repairs, the recent pattern of street cleaning and parking enforcement issues suggests ongoing concerns with the immediate neighborhood environment, though these would primarily affect public areas rather than the building itself.

Risk rating

How 117 Felton 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.

Neighborhood percentile
