Initial analysis

The property at 3549 Cabrillo Street in San Francisco's Outer Richmond district is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1952, currently owned by Marat and Kira Diner. The building has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work over the years, with the most recent major work occurring in 2022, which included asbestos abatement, drywall repairs, and furnace relocation in the garage, along with gas line modifications for the furnace and water heater installation. Prior improvements include a complete reroofing in 2015, addressing dry rot in a bay window in 2004 (following a termite report), and interior remodeling of the kitchen and master bedroom in 1990.

There is one notable housing inspection complaint on record from July 2016 regarding a possible illegal unit, though this case is currently listed as not active. The property has experienced numerous parking-related issues in the immediate vicinity over the past year, with multiple reports of driveway blocking and sidewalk parking between June and December 2024, including at least three instances where citations were issued. While these parking issues represent a pattern of concern in the immediate area, they are not directly related to the building's condition or management. Other recent incidents in the vicinity include a report of garbage and debris (electronics) in August 2024 and one case of defaced parking signage that remains open as of July 2024, though these are external to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 3549 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
35th percentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 676 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.

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.

Owner's portfolio size

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 62.1%
Moderate concern 19.2%
Severe concern 18.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
