Initial analysis

The 4-unit multi-family residential building at 30 Brazil Ave in the Excelsior neighborhood, owned by Nicolas & Adela Saucedo Tru, was constructed in 1951 and consists of two stories. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including a complete electrical system upgrade in 2008 with the installation of a 200-amp main service with five meters, and more recent maintenance activities such as street space permits issued in 2013 and 2010. Historical records show the building has had multiple routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services between 1996 and 2011, with the most recent inspection in 2011 identifying issues with stair repairs, which were subsequently resolved. The building has faced several safety-related violations, particularly in November 2000, when multiple citations were issued regarding various safety concerns including stair repairs, fire extinguisher maintenance, smoke detector installation, security requirements, and general building safety matters – all of which were abated by December 22, 2000. Previous maintenance work included reroofing completed in 1999, and repairs to the rear archway and utility-room doorway in 1986.

More recently, the property has experienced some recurring issues with debris and garbage accumulation in the vicinity, particularly during late 2024, with multiple reports of abandoned garbage and debris on or near the property. These environmental maintenance issues were documented through several 311 calls between November 2024 and January 2025, although most were resolved promptly. The building's infrastructure has been maintained over the years, with electrical improvements in 2008 and various repair work completed as needed. While the property has had its share of violations and required repairs, particularly in the earlier 2000s, these issues appear to have been addressed according to available records, with no active violations currently noted. The building's history shows regular oversight through routine inspections, and while there are ongoing issues with street cleanliness in the immediate area, these appear to be related to public space maintenance rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 30 Brazil 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 337 buildings in this neighborhood, 209 are predicted to be safer.
