2710 Cabrillo St

Central Richmond, SF 94121 1616019 12 units · 3 fl · 1947

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

The bar and the rating point different ways because they measure different things: the bar counts DBI violations already on file, the rating forecasts the next 12 months.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 2710 Cabrillo St rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Built before 1979
Built 1947

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

Built 1947
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 2710 Cabrillo Street in the Central Richmond has undergone several significant updates and faced various challenges since its construction in 1947. Most recently, in 2024, the building received major safety improvements with the installation of a new fire alarm system costing $44,718, though it subsequently faced violations related to fire escape maintenance, exit obstructions, and door issues in August 2024. The building has a history of fire safety concerns, as evidenced by multiple fire complaints and violations over the years, including blocked exits (2024), alarm system issues (most recently in 2024), and past violations related to extinguishers between 2015-2018. Unit 304 underwent significant renovation in 2023, including bathroom and kitchen remodeling with new plumbing fixtures and electrical work.

The building's maintenance history shows regular upgrades, including a boiler replacement in 2011 and more recent plumbing work in 2022-2023. Historical records from 2000 and 2006 indicate various safety compliance issues that were subsequently addressed, such as the repair of smoke enclosure doors, garbage chute, and security features. Recent 311 calls from 2023-2024 primarily relate to street cleaning and garbage debris outside the building, while a recent police response in 2024 regarding a blocked driveway was unable to locate the issue. The property has maintained multiple streetspace permits over the years (2004, 2014), and historical records show two roofing projects, one completed in 2001 and another from 1992 which expired. The building has experienced typical aging issues, as seen in a 2013 complaint about plaster and wall cracks, though this was subsequently abated.

Risk rating

How 2710 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
2ndpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 2205 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

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.
