Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4512 Cabrillo Street in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood is a 2-story flats/duplex structure built in 1924, currently owned by Beatrice L Jennings. The property has undergone several significant infrastructure improvements over the years, with the most recent being substantial electrical upgrades completed in late 2024, including the removal of old knob and tube wiring and installation of new electrical systems and sub-panels in both units, along with a 200-amp service upgrade. Prior improvements include a water line replacement in 2016 and historical structural work in 1991 involving concrete and wall reinforcements. The building's maintenance record shows attention to basic upkeep, though a 1997 reroofing permit did expire without record of completion.

The property's surrounding area has experienced various urban maintenance issues typical of the neighborhood, with records showing several 311 calls between 2018-2022 related to street cleanliness, parking enforcement, and infrastructure maintenance. These external matters included reports of graffiti, abandoned vehicles, and loose manhole covers requiring repair coordination with utility services. The building's age and location suggest these maintenance issues are primarily related to public infrastructure rather than the building itself, with no recorded safety incidents or significant resident complaints in the available data. The recent electrical system overhaul represents the most substantial investment in the building's infrastructure in recent years, addressing previous wiring safety concerns and bringing the electrical systems up to modern standards.

Risk rating

How 4512 Cabrillo 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
