Initial analysis

The four-story, 7-unit apartment building at 661-667 Fillmore St in Alamo Square, owned by Joseph K & Debbie C Lee Rev, was constructed in 1900 and has undergone several significant modifications and faced various safety concerns over the years. Most notably, the building completed mandatory soft-story seismic retrofitting in 2018 (Tier 4) with associated costs of $120,000, demonstrating compliance with city safety requirements. Recent fire safety violations have emerged as a continuing concern, with the most recent violations in September 2024 relating to blocked exits and extinguisher service requirements, though these were subsequently abated. The building has a documented history of maintenance issues, including multiple street space permits issued in 2018, reroofing work in 2009, and a bathroom remodel in 2009 that initially sparked building violations for unpermitted work. Between 2007-2011, the building experienced various safety inspection issues including electrical problems with flaming outlets, water damage, and multiple fire safety concerns such as an improperly maintained fire escape ladder and fire extinguisher issues.

More recent history shows ongoing attention to fire safety systems, with violations in 2022 and 2023-2024 specifically noting issues with extinguishers and alarm systems, though records indicate these were corrected or abated. The property was also involved in commercial use matters, with approvals for Tim's Market and related ABC licensing in 2018. Recent months have seen multiple 311 calls regarding garbage and debris issues at the property, with eight reports of overflowing city garbage cans between December 2024 and January 2025, though these are primarily street maintenance concerns rather than building-specific issues. The building remains under close scrutiny for fire safety compliance, as evidenced by the resolution of multiple violations in recent years related to fire extinguishers, exit obstructions, and alarm systems, while also maintaining compliance with mandatory seismic retrofit requirements.

Risk rating

How 661-667 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 305 buildings in this neighborhood, 186 are predicted to be safer.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Number of floors

Building height affects maintenance complexity and is one of the size signals the model uses.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 40.1%
Moderate concern 37.7%
Severe concern 22.1%
