Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 368-370 Precita Ave, located in the Bernal Heights neighborhood, is a 4-unit apartment structure built in 1900 and currently owned by Thomas W & Joanna S Mansell. The building's maintenance history shows permit activity from 1984 for repairs to the front stairs and porch roof, as well as a sidewalk-related permit issued in 2003, though no more recent structural permits are on record.

The property has experienced a notably high number of recent park-related issues throughout 2024, with multiple reports of park rule violations, trash dumping incidents, and one electrical maintenance issue that was resolved. From July 2024 onwards, there have been several unaddressed open cases, including one regarding recreation equipment and another related to trash dumping in the park service area. The park patrol has documented various enforcement actions, including one relating to off-leash dog walkers that was resolved when a park ranger intervened. There have also been two parking-related incidents in the vicinity - one involving an RV and another regarding abandoned vehicles - both of which were resolved when the vehicles were no longer present. While these issues primarily relate to the adjacent park rather than the building itself, they may impact resident experience in terms of surrounding area maintenance and security.

Risk rating

How 368-370 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 702 are predicted to be safer.
