Initial analysis

The three-story, multi-family residential building at 75-79 Glover Street, owned by Ocean Southwest 188 LLC, was constructed in 1907 and contains three units. The building has undergone several significant structural improvements over the past decade, most notably a voluntary seismic strengthening project in 2013 that included replacing rotten posts and footings in the basement at a cost of $18,000. Documented maintenance includes a water heater replacement in 2018, while historical records show earlier work such as reroofing in 1997. The property experienced multiple safety inspections between 1999 and 2011, with the most recent routine inspection in August 2011 revealing several issues that were subsequently addressed by October 2011, including fire extinguisher servicing, stair repairs, and wood stair repairs. Two buyouts occurred at this address, one for $12,500 in October 2015 and another for $3,000 in November 2016.

Recent activity around the property includes several maintenance and enforcement calls between 2020 and 2024, primarily related to sidewalk parking violations, waste management issues, and tree maintenance. There were two documented noise complaints regarding mechanical equipment (2018 and 2020), with one resolved through voluntary owner action. A smoke or odor removal incident was recorded in the fire incident log, but no civilian injuries were reported. The most recent complaints from 2024 relate to waste management issues, with one case being resolved through outreach and enforcement. The building's maintenance history suggests regular attention to structural and safety concerns, though the presence of multiple tenant buyouts in 2015-2016 may warrant attention to historical context.

Risk rating

How 75-79 Glover 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.
