Initial analysis

Located in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood, 915-919 Filbert Street is a three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1911. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and upgrade projects in recent years, including a water heater replacement in April 2024, kitchen and bathroom remodeling in 2016 ($25,000), and furnace replacement in December 2017. More substantial infrastructure work has been completed, such as house trap replacement in March 2009 and earlier reroofing projects in the 1990s, though the roof permits are now expired.

The building's history includes some important safety-related events, particularly a cluster of violations in November 2005 regarding stairway safety and smoke detector requirements, all of which were abated by January 2006. A fire sprinkler/standpipe system issue was reported and corrected in late 2021. The property has been subject to regular housing inspections, with the most recent routine inspections occurring in 2007. Maintenance of common areas has been a focus, with multiple permits for street space and sidewalk repairs issued between 2007 and 2019. Recently, from October 2024 through January 2025, there have been several reports of garbage and debris issues near the property, along with multiple parking enforcement requests for vehicles blocking driveways. The building's safety systems and infrastructure appear to be actively maintained, with recent permits indicating ongoing attention to necessary upgrades and repairs.

Risk rating

How 915-919 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
47th percentile

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 600 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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 49.8%
Moderate concern 24.4%
Severe concern 25.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
