Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1880-1884 Filbert Street in Cow Hollow, built in 1912, consists of 6 units and has undergone several significant renovations over the past decade, with the most recent major updates occurring between 2018-2019. These improvements primarily focused on kitchen remodels across multiple units (1880, 1882, and 1884), including new cabinets, appliances, and floorings, with proper adherence to fire safety requirements such as maintaining 1-hour separations between units. The building received substantial infrastructure upgrades in 2019 with the installation of a new 400-amp main service with 7 meters, along with comprehensive kitchen renovations involving electrical and plumbing work, including water heater installations.

Earlier improvements included reroofing work completed in 2016, and significant safety upgrades in 1998 when wooden stairs were replaced with a fire escape and a garage was constructed. The building has a history of compliance issues in 2001-2002 that were promptly addressed, including concerns about security features (such as handrails and door locking devices) and fire safety (egress issues and fire escape drop ladder violations), all of which were abated by March 2002. Other maintenance history includes several plumbing and electrical upgrades, though there was a plumbing permit that expired in 2015 related to hot water heater replacement. The only recorded fire incident was a smoke detector activation due to malfunction, with no injuries reported.

Risk rating

How 1880-1884 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

No violation 51.8%
Moderate concern 21.7%
Severe concern 26.4%
