Initial analysis

The property at 329 Woolsey St is a two-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located in the Portola neighborhood, owned by Jaime Gonzalez and constructed in 1966. The building has experienced several notable issues in recent years, most significantly an active building violation from August 2021 regarding an unauthorized roof installation over an unpermitted deck measuring approximately 380 square feet at the rear of the building. This violation, which triggered a monthly monitoring fee, became the subject of multiple complaints from neighbors citing safety concerns about the new structure's stability. A permit was subsequently filed in September 2021 to remove the deck roof in response to the violation, with a cost estimate of $1,000, and there is currently a director hearing scheduled for February 2024 related to this matter.

In addition to the building code issues, there has been significant recent activity regarding parking violations around the property. Between June 2024 and January 2025, there were multiple reports of parking violations including vehicles blocking driveways, parking on sidewalks, and abandoned vehicles, with several cases resulting in citations. There were also two instances of street cleaning issues noted during this period, though in one case nothing was found upon investigation. While these parking and street maintenance issues don't directly impact the building's habitability, they may affect residents' day-to-day experience in the neighborhood.

Risk rating

How 329 Woolsey 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.
