438 Arguello Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94118

The two-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 438 Arguello Blvd, owned by Soo Lock Yee Fmly Survivors, was constructed in 1972 and has maintained regular housing inspections over the years. The property's most recent significant maintenance work was completed in December 2020, when a reroofing project costing $15,600 was successfully finished. A noteworthy compliance issue arose in March 2011, when multiple fire safety violations were recorded concerning combustible storage and egress obstructions; however, these violations were promptly addressed and abated by October 2011.

The building has undergone several routine housing inspections, with records showing examinations in 2001, 2004, and 2016, all of which were marked as completed. In recent years, the property has experienced several parking-related issues, particularly in 2023-2024, with multiple complaints about vehicles blocking driveways. These complaints generally resulted in either citations or officers being unable to locate the vehicles.

Other recent incidents include a tree maintenance issue in January 2025 affecting the building's window, graffiti in July 2024, and several cases of vehicles parking on sidewalks between 2020-2022. The building's fire safety compliance has been stable since 2011, with no recent violations recorded, though there was one false fire alarm incident noted in the records with no civilian injuries reported. The property's maintenance and safety record shows prompt response to issues when they arise, with particular attention paid to fire safety concerns following the 2011 violations.
