Initial analysis

This two-unit multi-family residential building, located at 4-6 Montezuma St in Bernal Heights, was constructed in 1931 and is currently owned by the Doyle & Hunte Family Trust. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being a solar PV installation in October 2018 consisting of 10 roof-mounted modules with a total rating of 3.2 kW. In 2018, the building also received a new roof at a cost of $10,500, marking the second roofing project in the building's history, as an earlier roofing permit from 1994 had expired. The building underwent substantial interior improvements in 2015, including a $30,000 renovation of two bathrooms and electrical upgrades consisting of new receptacles, wall sconces, and ceiling fixtures in both units. Earlier improvements include the installation of multiple vinyl windows in 1998 and 2004, and the addition of two forced air heaters and electrical work in 2004.

The property has experienced some localized environmental issues over the past year, with several reports of driveway blocking incidents (four cases in 2024) and occasional street cleaning matters including graffiti, liquid spills, and general garbage concerns. While some of these issues could impact resident experience, they primarily relate to the immediate vicinity of the building rather than the structure itself. A 2024 report mentioned toters being left out continuously, though this was investigated and found not to be a problem. The building's documented improvements demonstrate regular maintenance and upgrading of essential systems, particularly in terms of energy efficiency with the installation of solar panels.

Risk rating

How 4-6 Montezuma 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.
