Initial analysis

The two-unit residential property at 247-249 29th Street in Noe Valley, currently owned by the Janice B Schulz Revocable Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex building constructed in 1950. The building underwent an electrical system upgrade in 2009, including the installation of a new 100-amp service, two new meters, and two new panels, which was successfully completed.

The property has experienced a notable pattern of parking enforcement issues in recent months, with multiple citations issued between May 2024 and January 2025 for vehicles blocking driveways, with eight documented cases resulting in citations. There are also records of two incidents in May 2024 involving a grey Ford truck, one of which was validated when officers responded. More recently, there is one unresolved report from December 2024 regarding a sidewalk defect caused by tree roots, which has been accepted and remains open as of the latest records. The parking enforcement issues suggest ongoing challenges with access to the property, while the electrical system upgrade completed in 2009 indicates the building has received some modernization, though no more recent improvements are on record.

Risk rating

How 247-249 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, 864 are predicted to be safer.
