Initial analysis

The 18-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 3575 Fillmore Street in the Marina neighborhood, owned by Bernice G Lindstrom, was constructed in 1926 and has undergone several significant renovations and compliance updates over the years. Most recently, the building completed a seismic upgrade for its soft-story structure in September 2023 at a cost of $100,000, addressing a critical safety requirement that had previously generated violations in early 2023 regarding the Mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program. The building's maintenance history includes a re-roofing project completed in 2018, multiple street space permits issued between 2011-2017, and substantial unit renovations in 2006-2007 involving kitchen and bathroom improvements in units 102 and 302, which included electrical upgrades and new plumbing fixtures.

The building's fire safety record shows several alarm activations between 2017-2020, including unintentional smoke detector activations, a sprinkler activation, and one cooking-related incident, though none resulted in civilian injuries. A 2006 violation regarding fire escape drop ladders was resolved, and a backflow device installation was completed in 2013. Recent maintenance issues in 2024 have primarily involved street-level concerns such as garbage debris, flooding, and sewer-related incidents, with multiple cases being reported and resolved through appropriate municipal channels. The building's soft-story retrofit was classified as completed with Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued, bringing the property into compliance with current seismic safety requirements.

Risk rating

How 3575 Fillmore 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.
