Inner Mission, SF 94110 3641048 3 units · 2 fl · 1900

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 932 Shotwell St rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1900
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The property at 932 Shotwell St is a three-unit, two-story multifamily residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Mission, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by the Snibbe Girshick Living Trust. The building underwent significant renovations in 2013, including a comprehensive interior remodel of the first-floor unit ($92,000), additional brick foundation work ($15,000), and the conversion of a second-floor closet into a half-bathroom ($5,000). This renovation project also encompassed plumbing upgrades throughout the building, including the installation of new gas lines, a furnace replacement, and bathroom electrical upgrades. The building has a history of compliance issues, most notably a series of violations identified during a 2015 routine inspection that included safety concerns related to fire extinguishers, carbon monoxide detectors, handrails, and gas meter instructions - though these were all marked as abated by February 2016. An earlier complaint from 2011 regarding unpermitted construction in the backyard was resolved in August 2011.

Recent activity at the property has included numerous 311 calls between December 2024 and January 2025 regarding street cleaning issues, with multiple reports of loose garbage, yard waste, and debris. While many of these cases were resolved promptly, they indicate ongoing challenges with maintaining the building's immediate surroundings. The most recent building-related work on record was a street space permit issued in 2013, though various plumbing and electrical upgrades were also completed during the 2013 renovation period.

Risk rating

How 932 Shotwell 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
57thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 1023 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
