Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1437 Cabrillo Street in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1924, currently owned by Lauren B Johnson. The building's documented maintenance history includes a roof-related building permit from 2002 and a completed plumbing permit from 2015 for a sewer line replacement with house trap installation. While there are no recent heating system complaints on record, the property experienced two heating issues in early 1995, with documented complaints about heat outages in bedrooms, though both were resolved within a few weeks of being reported. More recent maintenance and safety records show no significant building code violations or urgent repair needs. The only recent incidents on file are two 311 calls: one in January 2023 regarding loose garbage that required Recology intervention, and another in November 2021 involving a parking enforcement request for a blocked driveway, both of which were promptly resolved and do not directly reflect on building conditions.

Risk rating

How 1437 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

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 1192 are predicted to be safer.
