Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 375 Fair Oaks St in Noe Valley, owned by Johnny Robert Niemann, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1908, with a significant modernization upgrade completed in 2023. Recent improvements include comprehensive electrical system upgrades, such as rewiring of knob-and-tube circuits, installation of two new sub-panels, and addition of 35 new outlets, completed in August 2023, along with substantial kitchen renovations in both units featuring new appliances, cabinets, flooring, and fixtures. The building has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including a complete reroofing in 2010 ($14,120), window replacement in 2005, and various repairs to address dry rot issues in 1996, 2002, and 2005, indicating consistent upkeep of structural elements.

The property's recent history shows active maintenance and upgrading of essential systems, including plumbing upgrades completed in August 2023.

The building's permit history suggests proactive management, particularly in 2023 with multiple concurrent improvements focusing on safety, modernization, and maintenance. The most significant recent work has been the comprehensive electrical upgrade, indicating serious attention to infrastructure modernization and safety.

Risk rating

How 375-377 Fair Oaks 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.
