Initial analysis

The property at 312-314 Wayland Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Portola, built in 1939 and owned by Wu Ming Yu & Liu Sharon Rui. This duplex has undergone several significant renovations and faced notable challenges over recent years, most significantly a fire incident in March 2019 that caused structural damage to the exterior west side lightwell, deck, and roof area, along with interior fire, smoke, and water damage to both units' kitchens and lightwells. This incident triggered extensive repairs completed by 2020, including electrical system upgrades with new 200-amp service and three-meter socket installation, complete kitchen remodels in both units, and various bathroom renovations totaling approximately $143,000 in 2019. Subsequent remodeling work in 2021 focused on reconfiguring bathroom layouts on the second and third floors.

The building's maintenance record shows ongoing upkeep, including a 2019 reroofing project ($17,600) and stucco siding replacement. More recent history (2024-2025) has been marked by multiple service calls primarily related to street maintenance issues, including reports of garbage and debris, a sewage backup incident in September 2024, and some reports of illegal dumping in the vicinity. The property has demonstrated responsiveness to maintenance needs, as evidenced by timely completion of multiple building permits and plumbing/electrical work. A tenant buyout occurred in July 2022, involving two tenants and totaling $69,012. The most recent building-related permits and complaints indicate the property owners are actively maintaining and upgrading the building to meet modern standards, though there have been some recent concerns about external property maintenance as reflected in 311 calls.

Risk rating

How 312-314 Wayland 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.
