Initial analysis

The property at 1100 Ortega Street in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood is a two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1936, currently owned by Paul and Kimberley Davis Bernzweig. The single-story building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, most recently in 2019 when an accessible entry door upgrade was completed at a cost of $2,500. In 2011, the building experienced an important maintenance period when dry rot issues on the rear deck were addressed following a notice of violation, with repairs costing $6,000 and completed by December 2011. Earlier improvements include a complete reroofing project carried out in 2003 costing $18,000.

Recent records from 2024 show multiple maintenance issues in the immediate vicinity of the property, with eight separate reports of garbage and debris problems along the street, though these appear to be related to public spaces rather than the building itself. There are also two recent reports of illegal parking in August 2024 and one report of an overgrown tree blocking the sidewalk from October 2024. The building's documented history shows compliance with safety requirements, particularly regarding accessibility improvements, and prompt attention to structural concerns when they arise, as evidenced by the timely response to both the dry rot issue and accessibility modifications. The property has maintained active status with all building permits being marked as complete, and all historical violations have been resolved, with no active violations on record.

Risk rating

How 1100 Ortega 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
