Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 447 29th Street in Noe Valley, owned by the Klama Levine Family Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1895. Most notably, in 2016, the property successfully added a second dwelling unit at the ground floor, complete with kitchen, living area, bedroom, and bathroom, along with a new heating system, representing a major modernization of the two-story structure. More recent improvements include a complete re-roofing project in 2022 costing $22,000, and the installation of a solar panel system with EV charging capability in early 2022, demonstrating commitment to sustainability and energy efficiency.

The building has experienced some maintenance challenges, particularly with its sewer system, experiencing back-up issues in both December 2021 and June 2022 that required attention from PUC Sewer Operations. There was also an incident involving tree root damage to the sidewalk in 2021 that remains open as of August 2021. The property has generated several parking-related complaints in recent years, with multiple incidents of driveway blocking reported between 2023-2025, though these are typical urban issues rather than building-specific problems. The building's permit history shows responsible maintenance and improvement practices, with all recent major work properly permitted and completed, including a 2016 kitchen remodel and various infrastructure upgrades.

Risk rating

How 447 29Th 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 38 are predicted to be safer.
