Initial analysis

The property at 303 Bennington Street in Bernal Heights is a multi-family residential building containing two units, constructed in 1900 and featuring one story. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to critical infrastructure, with the most recent significant work being a complete reroofing project completed in 2018 at a cost of $22,000, following an earlier expired reroofing permit from 1996. Other notable improvements include the installation of a solar energy system in 2015, comprising eight roof-mounted PV panels with a total rated capacity of 2.08 kW and an upgraded 125-amp main panel. The building's plumbing system received attention in 2011 with a gas houseline extension project, while historical records from the 1980s indicate work on front stairs and door locks, though these permits are no longer active.

Recent activity near the property has been primarily related to parking enforcement issues, with numerous reports of abandoned vehicles and driveway blocking incidents between August and December 2024. Most of these cases were resolved quickly, with vehicles being gone upon officers' arrival. In August 2024, there was one instance of garbage and debris on the property that was subsequently cleaned up by municipal services. While the frequency of parking-related complaints is notable, these incidents occurred on public streets rather than within the property's direct control. The building's record shows consistent maintenance and infrastructure improvements, with no reported safety violations or significant resident complaints about the property itself.

Risk rating

How 303 Bennington 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.
