Initial analysis

111 Southern Heights Avenue is a three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located in the Potrero Hill neighborhood, constructed in 1978 and currently owned by Edward Miller and Rira M Bral. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, with the most recent being window and door replacements in 2019 and 2017. In 2019, aluminum sliding doors on the front façade and two sliding doors in the eastern lightwell were upgraded to more energy-efficient vinyl sliding doors, while the 2017 renovation involved replacing one window and three sliding doors at the rear of the building with vinyl frames. Earlier improvements included the replacement of three windows and repairs to wood rot at the rear of the building in 1987, while permits from 1993 and 1995 for interior modifications expired without completion.

The property has experienced minimal issues requiring municipal intervention, with three 311 calls on record in recent years. These include a Christmas tree removal in January 2023, a parking enforcement request in March 2021 (which officers were unable to locate), and a street cleaning issue involving human or animal waste in April 2015 that was eventually resolved. Additionally, there are planning records indicating past variance applications for a nearby address (917 Rhode Island Street) for a three-unit residential building, which were approved and involved rear yard modifications, though this is not directly related to the current property at 111 Southern Heights Avenue.

Risk rating

How 111 Southern Heights 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.

Neighborhood percentile
