Initial analysis

The multi-family residential building at 1326-1332 Shotwell Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Machate Mars A&Julieta G Re, is a 2-story, 4-unit apartment structure built in 1925. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance events over the years, with particular attention required in 2022 when multiple violations were recorded related to fire safety, sanitation, and building maintenance, including mold issues and fire safety concerns. These violations, filed between May and July 2022, were notably resolved by August 2022. Earlier, in 2015, there were complaints regarding potentially illegal basement unit modifications, while multiple routine inspections were conducted in the late 1990s and 2000s. The building's maintenance history shows some regular upkeep, including a reroofing project in 2003 and various plumbing works, notably a water heater replacement in 2014 and a sewer/housetrap replacement in 2012. More recently, there have been 311 calls regarding the property from 2022-2025, primarily concerning street and sidewalk maintenance issues, though these are not directly related to the building's internal conditions. The property also experienced two fire safety complaints about blocked exits in October 2017, which were determined to have no merit. Notably, there was a tenant buyout at 1336 Shotwell Street in May 2015 involving $32,000 and four tenants, though it's unclear how this relates to the subject building.

Risk rating

How 1326-1332 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

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.
