Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 114-118 Precita Avenue in Bernal Heights was constructed in 1905 and is currently owned by Bcp Properties LLC. The property has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance projects in recent years, with particular attention to safety improvements. Most notably, in 2022, the building addressed exterior safety concerns by replacing dilapidated stairs from unit 114's exterior patio with a steel ladder and renovating concrete steps between units 116 and 118, work originally prompted by a September 2020 notice of violation. The property has also seen substantial infrastructure upgrades, including the complete replacement of plumbing systems in all three units in January 2020, installation of fire sprinklers in December 2019, and comprehensive electrical system updates with new 100-amp subpanels for each unit.

Previous safety concerns included an unsafe balcony without guardrails (identified in October 2020) and questions about egress routes, though these issues have since been addressed through the aforementioned renovations. The building's maintenance record shows regular attention to safety and compliance issues, with several routine inspections and prompt responses to violations. Recent 311 calls related to the property have primarily concerned external issues such as parking violations and street cleaning matters, rather than building-specific problems. The property has maintained compliance with building regulations, with all documented violations being resolved and abated, including earlier concerns from 2000 regarding gas utility shutoff instructions which were resolved in 2017.

Risk rating

How 114-118 Precita 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.
