Initial analysis

The property at 3041-3045 Fillmore Street, located in the Cow Hollow neighborhood, is a two-story multi-family residential building with retail space, containing 3 residential units and a ground-floor commercial space, built in 1900. The building's history shows several significant events, with the most notable being an attempted change of use for the second floor in 2005, where plans were proposed to convert a residential unit (R3) to office space (B) with fire-rated gypsum board installations, though these permits were ultimately cancelled. The ground-floor retail space underwent substantial improvements in 2003, including a new facade, entry, and bathroom installation, costing over $92,000, and was subsequently rewired in 2004 with a comprehensive electrical upgrade. A recent plumbing update occurred in 2021 with the replacement of a wall furnace and flue pipe.

The building's recent maintenance history shows some exterior and sidewalk maintenance challenges, with multiple reports of garbage and debris issues in 2024, though these were resolved. The property has experienced various minor issues typical for urban settings, including graffiti removal in 2021, an illegal posting case in 2022, and a driveway blockage incident in 2023. A pavement defect was reported in January 2024 and remains open. The building's fire safety record shows only one incident, involving a smoke detector malfunction with no injuries reported.

Risk rating

How 3041-3045 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 568 are predicted to be safer.
