Initial analysis

The two-story, five-unit multi-family residential building at 4192-4194 Mission Street, owned by Portola Properties LLC, was constructed in 1956 in the Mission Terrace neighborhood. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including a comprehensive re-roofing project completed in 2011 costing $22,000, street space and sidewalk work in 2012, and a complete repiping of the building's water services in 2012. The building has maintained regular safety inspections, with routine inspections conducted in 2000, 2009, and 2015, though only one violation was noted during this period related to smoke detector installation, which was resolved within ten days.

Recent activity on the property shows some concerning trends, particularly with two fire-related complaints in 2024 - one regarding combustible materials filed on November 1st, and another uncategorized complaint from August 2013 that was promptly corrected. The building's recent service requests primarily relate to street and sidewalk issues, including multiple 311 calls about illegal parking, street cleaning, and sign repairs between 2021 and 2024, though these external issues don't directly impact building safety. A recent rent board inquiry in October 2024 resulted in an update to the owner information in official databases. The building's maintenance history suggests regular upkeep has been performed, with no active building violations or complaints on file as of the latest available data.

Risk rating

How 4192-4194 Mission 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
