Initial analysis

2460 Larkin Street is a 4-story, 10-unit multi-family residential building located in Russian Hill, constructed in 1917 and currently owned by Culdice Properties LLC. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and upgrade projects over the past several years, with the most recent major work including a sewer lateral replacement (2021), new hot water boiler installation (2020), and a kitchen and bathroom remodel in Unit 5 (2020) that included electrical upgrades and plumbing work, all completed successfully. The property has experienced some notable historical events, including active building violations from 2001 related to structural concerns with stairs, landing, and chimney due to adjacent excavation work (at 2448 Larkin Street), which remain unresolved in the current records despite being more than two decades old. The building has had multiple boiler permit renewal issues, with violations noted in 2016 and 2018, though these were subsequently resolved.

The property's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with historical records indicating completion of various important projects including reroofing (1990), masonry flue bracing (2001), and compliance upgrades (1987). Recent infrastructure improvements suggest proactive maintenance by the current ownership, including the installation of new electrical systems, plumbing updates, and general unit refurbishments. The building has passed several routine inspections, including fire safety system checks in 2017 and 2018, though there were periodic issues requiring correction. Recent 311 calls for the property primarily relate to external matters such as street cleaning and parking enforcement rather than building-specific issues. Planning records indicate an approved project to extend Greenwich Street access and improve site features, suggesting ongoing commitment to property enhancement.

Risk rating

How 2460 Larkin 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
8th percentile

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 1042 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.

Number of units

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

Building size

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

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 10.2%
Moderate concern 42.5%
Severe concern 47.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
