Initial analysis

157 Miramar Avenue, a 2-unit multi-family residential building located in the Ingleside neighborhood, is a 2-story structure built in 1912 and currently owned by the Richard O Durban Revc Trust. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the past decade, with the most recent work starting in June 2024 involving repairs to the exterior back stair and rebuilding of the chimney stack, with both projects properly permitted and estimated to cost a total of $9,000. A concerning issue was reported in November 2023 regarding persistent sewer problems, including video documentation of professional assessments recommending pipe replacement, though this complaint is currently marked as "Not Active" in the plumbing inspection division's system.

The building's historical maintenance record shows attention to structural elements such as brick veneer repairs in 2010, porch restoration, and seismic upgrades attempted in 1991, as well as a complete reroofing in 1990. Recent activity indicates ongoing maintenance needs, with a notable pattern of complaints regarding encapsulated issues such as rodent/insect infestation (resolved December 2024) and multiple reports of sidewalk parking violations between December 2024 and January 2025, though many of these could not be validated or resulted in citations. Two fire-related incidents were recorded in 2015, including a hoarding complaint that was ultimately closed due to "No Access To Building" and an unmerited complaint in February of the same year. The property has been subject to various municipal oversight including plumbing, fire safety, and urban forestry departments, with the most recent building permits actively addressing current structural maintenance needs.

Risk rating

How 157 Miramar Ave'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.
