AI summary

The three-story multi-family residential building at 630-632 Filbert Street in North Beach, owned by Archdiocese Of S F & Schl J, was constructed in 1910 and contains 4 units. The property has recently experienced several significant issues, with multiple active violations as of July 2024, including lead hazard warnings, concerns about damaged paint potentially creating lead hazards, cleanliness issues, and requirements for utility shutoff tools and exit signs. Two recent complaints from July 2024 suggest unauthorized structural alterations at the rear of the building involving unpermitted plumbing and electrical work, as well as concerns about contamination from neighboring construction work. The building has a documented history of fire code violations, with multiple citations issued between 2019-2023 regarding alarm systems, fire protection equipment, and emergency procedures, though these violations have generally been abated in a timely manner.

The property has undergone some maintenance work in recent years, including a sewer line replacement in 2014 and the installation of a stairway chair-lift in 1993 (though this permit expired). There have been various complaints and service requests via 311 calls in late 2024 and early 2025, primarily related to street lighting, sidewalk conditions, and blocked pathways, indicating ongoing maintenance and accessibility concerns in the immediate vicinity of the building. While some historical issues have been resolved, the current violations related to lead hazards, fire safety, and building maintenance suggest continuing challenges with property upkeep and safety compliance, particularly regarding older building systems and materials.

Risk rating

How 630-632 Filbert 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.

Neighborhood percentile
46th percentile

Out of 362 buildings in this neighborhood, 195 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 68.8%
Moderate concern 16.3%
Severe concern 14.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
