Initial analysis

The 16-unit, 2-story apartment building at 1760-1770 Filbert Street in Cow Hollow, built in 1908, has undergone significant renovations and faced several compliance issues over the years. Most recently, in 2023, units 33 and 70d received kitchen and bathroom remodels totaling $60,000, while fire safety systems required attention with a violation issued in February 2023 regarding sprinkler service that was subsequently abated. The property underwent extensive unit improvements in 2018, including a complete electrical rewiring project for multiple units with the installation of individual sub-panels, bathroom and kitchen remodels, and laundry facility additions. A noteworthy incident occurred between 2002-2011 regarding unauthorized expansion of the ground floor storage area into the light-court area, which resulted in multiple notices of violation.

The building's management has demonstrated ongoing maintenance and upgrade efforts, including a comprehensive fire system replacement and upgrade in 2018, replacement of unapproved backflow equipment in 2017, and various unit-specific improvements. Several permits for vertical addition and additional ADU units were filed but ultimately withdrawn or cancelled. The property achieved compliance with San Francisco's soft-story retrofit program, receiving a Certificate of Final Completion. Historical complaints have included issues with deck construction in 2006-2008, various safety inspections, and routine violations that were generally addressed and abated. The building's maintenance history shows regular updates to essential systems, though it has experienced some construction-related disputes with neighboring properties and temporary fire safety system concerns.

Risk rating

How 1760-1770 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

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 680 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.

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 68.5%
Moderate concern 20.9%
Severe concern 10.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
