The property at 2139-2141 Filbert Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Cow Hollow neighborhood, constructed in 1915 and currently owned by the Raquel Baldocchi Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, with the most recent major work including the installation of a solar PV system with 16 modules (6.4 kW) and battery system in July 2021, and a bathroom addition in 2020 that included lightwell infill and chimney removal. Important renovations in 2011 included a horizontal rear extension and kitchen remodeling in both units, while 2009 saw bathroom and kitchen updates in unit 2139, along with necessary dry rot repairs. The building's infrastructure has been substantially upgraded, including a new main drain connection to the city line in December 2022.

The property has experienced some maintenance and compliance issues over the years, including a complaint filed in August 2021 regarding unauthorized work and safety concerns involving a makeshift platform, though this was addressed within one day of reporting. While there was a fire-related complaint in April 2013, it was resolved within two days with conditions corrected. Recent service requests from 2024 primarily relate to external issues such as sidewalk maintenance, parking violations, and street cleaning needs, which are handled by various city departments including Recology and MTA Parking Enforcement. A planning record from 2023 shows an approved partial light well infill project with neighbor signatures, indicating community cooperation on building improvements. The property's permit history demonstrates regular maintenance and upgrades, including roofing work in 2018 and various plumbing and electrical improvements to support modern living standards.

Risk rating

How 2139-2141 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, 146 are predicted to be safer.
