Initial analysis

129 Leland Avenue is a three-story, mixed-use residential building constructed in 2002 under the ownership of Miguel and Maria Guadal Ramirez, containing four residential units and ground-floor commercial space. The building's development history shows significant safety preparedness measures, including the installation of a comprehensive fire sprinkler system throughout the building in 2001 (completed at a cost of $7,000) and subsequent revisions to the system, demonstrating adherence to fire safety regulations. During its construction period in 2000-2002, there was one notable compliance issue when work was temporarily halted due to a violation complaint in March 2000, though this was resolved by May 2001.

The building has undergone several routine inspections and faced periodic issues, including a 2019 violation related to the Vacant or Abandoned Commercial Storefront Ordinance, and a 2008 inspection that identified multiple safety compliance items regarding fire extinguishers and gas utility requirements, all of which were subsequently resolved. Recent maintenance concerns have primarily focused on external factors, as evidenced by multiple 2024 reports about tree-related sidewalk damage and a December 2024 sidewalk defect report. Other exterior maintenance issues have included occasional problems with garbage and debris (2024) and instances of parking violations on the sidewalk (2023). The property underwent a formal routine housing inspection in 2011, which was completed without any noted violations. The building's permits and inspection records suggest generally responsible management, with most historical issues being promptly addressed according to regulatory requirements.

Risk rating

How 129 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 214 buildings in this neighborhood, 24 are predicted to be safer.
