Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 29-31 Hattie Street in Corona Heights, currently owned by Meteorite Real Estate LLC, has undergone significant renovations and improvements since its construction in 1907, particularly following a serious fire incident in October 2016 that caused extensive structural damage and rendered the building unsafe and uninhabitable. The property has seen substantial safety upgrades, including the installation of a comprehensive fire alarm system in 2021 (with a previous attempt in 2020), and a complete sprinkler system installation in 2019 costing $15,000. Recent electrical work completed in 2022 included new wiring installation throughout the building, while plumbing upgrades encompassed the installation of two water heaters and improvements to kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry facilities in 2022. The building has also received notable comfort and safety enhancements, including the installation of two direct vent gas fireplaces in 2020, and a radiant heat system spanning four floors in 2019.

The property underwent significant rebuilding and safety improvements after the 2016 fire, with emergency demolition and reconstruction work being completed. More recent maintenance issues have primarily related to exterior concerns, including graffiti removal and tree root problems as noted in 2023. The building's renovation history demonstrates substantial investment in fire safety and modern amenities, with most recent work focusing on general maintenance and environmental improvements. Recent 311 calls between 2022 and 2024 have primarily concerned exterior issues such as graffiti, sidewalk cleaning, and parking concerns, with no recent building safety concerns reported.

Risk rating

How 29-31 Hattie 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
30th percentile

Out of 348 buildings in this neighborhood, 244 are predicted to be safer.
