Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 53 Miguel Street in Glen Park is a two-story structure built in 1965, currently owned by Jory P Johansen 2016 Revoc. The property has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, including the installation of a solar power system in 2019 (6 kW rating), fireplace upgrades in 2018 (including gas line installations and new gas meters), and window replacements in 2017-2018 (both front and rear windows across all units). Major renovation work was carried out in 2015-2016, including bathroom remodels in all units, replacement of wood-burning fireplaces, and related electrical upgrades, with some permits later identified as needing correction, particularly regarding apparent unpermitted kitchen renovations in two units (complained about in 2019).

The building's maintenance and incident history shows attention to building systems and safety features, though there have been several notable events requiring attention. In 2007, the property experienced fire safety violations related to blocked exits and fire escape obstructions, though these were subsequently resolved. More recent years have seen various infrastructure issues including a sewage backup (2023), and multiple street-related concerns such as construction plates and manhole covers requiring attention (2024). The property has also had regular maintenance issues typical of urban residences, including parking violations, tree maintenance needs, and waste management concerns, all of which were addressed through standard municipal response channels. Though there have been complaints about construction noise and unauthorized work, these issues do not appear to have resulted in ongoing problems or safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 53 Miguel 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
39th percentile

Out of 364 buildings in this neighborhood, 222 are predicted to be safer.
