Initial analysis

The 206 Leland Avenue property is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in Visitacion Valley, built in 1967 and currently owned by the Chu Family Revocable Trust. The building has undergone significant safety and infrastructure improvements in recent years, most notably the installation of a comprehensive fire safety system between 2022-2023, including a new sprinkler system for the ground floor, sprinkler monitoring system, wireless alarm communicator, smoke detector, and control units, with associated plumbing and electrical work totaling over $27,000. In 2021, an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) conversion was completed on the first floor, adding two bedrooms, kitchen, and living/dining areas. The building had several building violations in 2001 and 2007 related to fire safety, security, and smoke detection requirements, all of which have been marked as abated. A notable incident occurred in 2011 involving unstable windows on the third floor, though this complaint was resolved the same day it was filed.

Recent maintenance and improvements include a bathroom addition and kitchen remodel on the first floor in 2022, along with furnace replacement. The property has been subject to regular routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services from 1999-2013, with all issues apparently resolved. Recent service records from late 2023 show some exterior maintenance needs, including sewer flooding and various debris issues, though these are primarily street-level concerns. The building's recent permit activity and resolved violations suggest a focus on improving safety systems and maintaining compliance with current building codes, though the presence of some recent 311 calls regarding exterior maintenance may warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 206 Leland 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.
