65-67 Laussat St, San Francisco, CA 94102

The property at 65-67 Laussat Street, located in Hayes Valley, is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Holmes Saranah. The building has undergone significant recent improvements, most notably the conversion of the basement into a legalized accessory dwelling unit (ADU) completed in late 2022, which cost approximately $148,000. This renovation was accompanied by various electrical upgrades, including a 200-amp service upgrade and fire warning system installation in December 2024, along with the addition of three mini-splits for climate control in early 2024.

The property has a documented history of both maintenance and violations, with several notable issues addressed since 2003. These include multiple repairs to electrical systems, plumbing upgrades, and building maintenance work such as roofing (2016) and siding replacement (2022). A series of violations were recorded in 2003 related to various building systems, including heating, electrical, and plumbing, but were all resolved by April 2003.

More recent complaints include a 2022 issue regarding possible asbestos tiles (resolved) and a 2010 report of various maintenance problems including mold and window issues (resolved). The building has also seen infrastructure improvements, such as the installation of new utilities and modernization of services, with multiple plumbing and electrical permits issued in 2024. Environmental concerns, such as sidewalk graffiti and reports of waste, have been addressed through municipal services, though these are typical urban maintenance issues rather than building-specific problems.
