Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 23 Mirabel Avenue in Bernal Heights, owned by Jessica McGowan-Vanderbeck, has undergone several significant upgrades and modifications since its construction in 1905. The most recent work, filed in early 2023, involves deck modifications including reducing the size of the third-story deck and widening the second-story deck, along with a new spiral staircase installation. In 2024, important infrastructure improvements include a 200A electrical panel upgrade and the installation of a new solar system. The property has received substantial renovations in 2021, including comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodels, window replacements, and various plumbing improvements including sewer stack replacement and furnace installation. Historical records show foundational work was completed in 1999-2000, and the building had some maintenance issues in 2007 that were promptly addressed, including repairs to handrails and fire safety equipment.

More recent maintenance history includes three sewer-related incidents between 2023 and 2024, though these were resolved by city services. A tenant buyout was recorded in May 2023 for $9,400, and there is currently a proposal under review for interior renovations and potential additional dwelling unit modifications. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep and modernization, with most historical code violations related to a single incident in 2007 which were all resolved by January 2008. The property has maintained compliance with building codes since then, with no active violations or pending legal issues as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 23 Mirabel 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

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 332 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 74.7%
Moderate concern 20.9%
Severe concern 4.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
