Initial analysis

The 12-unit apartment building at 2800 Filbert Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Lat Corporation, is a three-story structure built in 1924 that has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges over its history. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory seismic soft-story retrofit in 2016 (Tier 3) costing $160,000, demonstrating compliance with current safety standards. Recent improvements include a comprehensive kitchen upgrade in Unit #12 in 2017, and plumbing work including the installation of new water and sewer lines in 2022-2016. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly related to heating systems, with multiple complaints about lack of heat recorded between 2001-2002. A series of violations in 2000 highlighted several safety concerns, including egress obstructions, fire safety issues, and problems with the central alarm system, though these were all resolved by May 2000.

The property has demonstrated ongoing maintenance and infrastructure upgrades, including a 400-amp electrical service installation in 2005, reroofing in 2002, and multiple electrical and plumbing system improvements. Recent records show some concerns with building maintenance as evidenced by 311 calls, including a rodent/insect infestation report in July 2024 and instances of garbage and debris issues during street cleaning operations. The fire safety record shows no significant incidents resulting in injuries, though there have been multiple equipment-related responses, including a cooking fire, smoke detector activations, and CO detector issues, all of which were contained and resulted in no civilian injuries. The building's recent history (2019-2024) has been relatively stable concerning major violations or structural issues, with most recent complaints relating to routine building maintenance matters rather than urgent safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 2800 Filbert 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, 818 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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

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

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 25.5%
Moderate concern 46.0%
Severe concern 28.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
