Initial analysis

The property at 372-378 Lily Street is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building located in Hayes Valley, constructed in 1887 and currently owned by Deborah Granelli. The building has undergone several significant improvements over its lifetime, with the most recent major work being the installation of a pressure reduction valve completed in November 2023. The building experienced multiple sewer-related issues in early 2024, with four documented sewage backup incidents from the side sewer vent between February and July 2024, which were all resolved according to PUC records. A series of renovations took place between 2005 and 2016, including window replacements, exterior siding work, stair repairs, and a complete electrical system upgrade to 200-amp service for all units in 2007.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural and safety elements, including reroofing in 2006 and plumbing improvements such as house trap replacement in 2011. However, there have been some concerning events, including a period in 2018 when construction work was reported to be occurring during non-business hours, and a 2015 complaint regarding unauthorized exterior work involving scaffolding, tenting, and siding replacement. The property has also faced some recent challenges related to street conditions, with multiple encampment and cleanup requests recorded in late 2023, as well as one incident of medical waste (needles) reported in November 2023. While these external issues don't directly impact the building's interior conditions, they are worth noting as part of the property's overall context.

Risk rating

How 372-378 Lily 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
91th percentile

Out of 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 92 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

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 75.5%
Moderate concern 14.6%
Severe concern 9.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
