Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 306 Precita Ave in Bernal Heights, owned by Precita Holdings LLC, was constructed in 1902 and contains two units with commercial space. Recent improvements to the property include the installation of six street-facing double-hung wooden windows in 2019 ($7,000), and a history of maintenance work such as 200-amp electrical service upgrade (2003), main sewer line repair (2017), and reroofing (1990). The building has undergone several significant changes in use and configuration, including a proposed ground floor conversion to a design professional office in 2019 (withdrawn), and earlier attempts to establish a small self-service restaurant (closed).

The property has experienced recurring sewer issues, with documented sewage backups in November 2019 (resolved) and June 2024 (currently open). A fire complaint regarding combustible materials was reported and corrected in September 2017. The building and surrounding area have been subject to various municipal service calls between 2020 and 2024, including street cleaning, signage maintenance, and singular issues such as noise complaints and illegal parking. Of particular note is the recent (2024) sewer vent issue reported through the PUC Sewer Operations. The property's maintenance record shows ongoing attention to both structural and systems upgrades, though the recent sewer issues may indicate continued plumbing infrastructure challenges.

Risk rating

How 306 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.
