Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 319 Madrid Street in the Excelsior neighborhood, owned by Erika A Hanson, has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects since its construction in 1909. The most recent significant work was completed in December 2023, involving a $26,100 reroofing project. Prior improvements include the installation of thirteen aluminum windows in November 1983. The property experienced a notable violation in 2010 regarding unauthorized fence construction at the side property line, with complaints filed about multiple fences allegedly built on the neighboring property, including one with a roof and metal spears on top. However, these issues were resolved within weeks of being reported, with the final resolution occurring by June 2010.

In early 2025, there has been a cluster of recent activity around the property, primarily involving parking and street maintenance issues. Multiple complaints have been made regarding driveway blocking, abandoned vehicles, and illegal parking, though these are primarily street-related issues rather than problems with the building itself. There have been several reports of garbage and debris on the street, including furniture and other waste materials, as well as concerns about waste receptacles being left out continuously. While these recent incidents indicate some ongoing maintenance challenges in the immediate vicinity of the property, they appear to be more related to street management issues rather than problems with the building structure or systems itself.

Risk rating

How 319 Madrid 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
