Initial analysis

The four-story, 13-unit apartment building at 1843-1849 Fillmore Street, owned by Leonel V & Pamela R Dickey, has a significant history of maintenance and safety issues since its construction in 1900. The most pressing recent concerns include recurring garbage and debris issues in the vicinity, with multiple complaints about overflowing city garbage cans and loose debris documented through 2024. The building has undergone several important structural improvements, notably a substantial $35,000 rear stair rebuild in 2002 following a notice of violation, and a foundation project for a rear storage area that same year. A series of fire safety violations and complaints were recorded between 2007 and 2023, including concerns about blocked exits, hazardous materials, and alarm systems, though these were generally marked as "Condition Corrected".

The property experienced significant regulatory scrutiny in 2001-2002, with multiple violations related to building systems, sanitation, and fire safety, including issues with stairs, rodent infestation, gas utility requirements, and inadequate lighting - all of which were ultimately abated by April 2003. More recently, between 2019-2020, the building faced compliance issues with the vacant storefront ordinance, though these were resolved. The building's fire safety record includes one gas leak incident, with no civilian injuries reported. While many previous violations have been addressed, the frequency of recent garbage-related complaints suggests ongoing challenges with waste management in the building's vicinity. The building's location has been subject to periodic flooding issues as documented in a December 2024 complaint.

Risk rating

How 1843-1849 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.
