AI summary

378 Fillmore St is a three-story, 8-unit multi-family residential apartment building constructed in 1914, located in the Hayes Valley neighborhood and currently owned by H/s Partners Ii Lp. The building has undergone significant safety improvements in recent years, most notably completing a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016 that included adding steel moment frames and plywood shear walls to both residential and commercial spaces, demonstrating compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. The building's electrical systems were substantially upgraded in 2015 with a new 300-amp service installation, including multiple panel replacements.

Recent history shows several renovation and compliance matters, including the replacement of storefront windows in 2020 following a complaint about unauthorized construction. The building has experienced recurring issues with garbage and debris, particularly regarding overflowing city garbage cans, with multiple 311 calls recorded in early 2025. While there was a cluster of building violations in 2008 related to safety and security requirements (including fire escape maintenance, handrails, lighting, and door security), these were all abated by August 2008. The property maintains several commercial-use permits, including for a grocery store and locksmith business, and has been listed on the Legacy Business Registry. Fire incident records show minimal activity, with no civilian injuries reported in three documented incidents, which include a contained cooking fire and two other incidents categorized as hazardous conditions.

Risk rating

How 378 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.
