Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2509-2511 Cabrillo Street in the Central Richmond neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1941, currently owned by the David Hong Chune Revocable Living Trust. The property has undergone several significant maintenance activities in recent years, including a complete reroofing project in August 2023 costing $15,680, and the replacement of two aluminum windows in July 1988. The building has experienced some infrastructure challenges, with a sewage back-up incident reported in December 2024 and various tree-related issues including lifted sidewalk roots and a dead tree that required removal in 2024. The property has had multiple street maintenance matters addressed through 311 calls, particularly regarding tree maintenance and sidewalk issues, with three tree-related service requests in 2024 alone.

Recent records show ongoing attention to both the building's maintenance and surrounding infrastructure, including regular tree maintenance, sidewalk cleaning, and parking enforcement for driveway blocking incidents. Two minor fire-related incidents have been recorded, one involving water or steam leakage and another with smoke odor, though no civilian injuries were reported in either case. The property's permit history indicates regular upkeep, with the most recent significant structural improvement being the 2023 roofing project, while earlier permits show work dating back to 1996 for roofing and 1988 for window replacement. The building has maintained compliance with routine maintenance requirements, as evidenced by the closure of multiple 311 calls through various city agencies, though there remain some open issues as of late 2024, including a curb defect and tree root-related sidewalk damage.

Risk rating

How 2509-2511 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, 495 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.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

Notices of Violation, owner's portfolio

DBI NOVs across all buildings this owner is registered on — a signal of systemic maintenance issues across the portfolio.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 86.8%
Moderate concern 10.3%
Severe concern 2.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
