Initial analysis

The property at 191-197 27th Street in Noe Valley is a 2-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Lavezzo Associates. The building has undergone several significant maintenance updates over its lifetime, with the most recent being a completed reroofing project in 2014 costing $12,800. Historical records show compliance-related work was completed in 1985, and there were two notable repair incidents: an electrical outlet issue in 2012 and a fire extinguisher violation in 2008, both of which were promptly addressed. The building has undergone regular routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 1999, 1997, 2008, and 2012, with no active violations currently on record.

Recent activity around the building has been primarily related to parking enforcement, with multiple 311 calls between 2023-2024 regarding vehicles parking on the sidewalk, with several citations issued and some calls resulting in officers being unable to locate the offending vehicles. A minor fire-related incident was recorded, noting assistance with an invalid, but no civilian injuries were reported. The building appears to be maintaining compliance with housing codes, with prompt attention to repairs and violations when they have occurred, though recent concerns about parking enforcement in the vicinity may impact resident convenience.

Risk rating

How 191-197 27Th 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.
