Initial analysis

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 2502-2508 Cabrillo Street in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Vladislav & Biana Chernoguz, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1921. The most recent major work was completed in December 2012 with a $9,500 reroofing project. Between 2007 and 2009, the property underwent substantial renovations including the replacement of furnaces, installation of a new 200-amp four-meter electrical service, comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodels in two units, and the addition of energy-efficient lighting systems. Some of this work initially encountered complications; for example, permits from 2006-2008 regarding kitchen and bathroom renovations and electrical work expired without final inspections, though these issues were later resolved in 2008.

The building's record shows attention to safety standards, with a fire-related violation filed in 2001 regarding combustible storage that was promptly abated by June 2001. A recent complaint from March 2021 regarding nighttime construction noise was filed but is no longer active. The property has experienced several parking-related issues in 2023-2024, with multiple citations issued for vehicles blocking driveways, particularly between May and December 2023, suggesting an ongoing challenge with parking enforcement in the area. However, these parking matters are external to the building's operation and maintenance history.

Risk rating

How 2502-2508 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.
