48 Terra Vista Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 4-unit TIC building at 48 Terra Vista Ave in Anza Vista, owned by Lawrence Tang and Sara Terada, was constructed in 1951 and has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the years. Most recently, in 2024, the building received a domestic hot water heater replacement, completing the most recent plumbing updates following a gas houseline extension in 2020 and comprehensive repiping work in 2016.

The building has a documented history of addressing various maintenance issues, including a reroofing project in 2016 costing $8,000, termite repairs in 2008, and a significant remodeling project in 2007 that updated all four units' kitchens and bathrooms. The property has experienced periodic inspection and maintenance challenges, particularly between 2000 and 2007, when multiple routine safety inspections revealed various issues requiring attention, including plumbing, electrical, and interior surface violations. Notable concerns during this period included water damage, window latch issues, and ventilation problems that were subsequently addressed and abated.

Recent years have shown a marked improvement in maintenance compliance, with no active violations since 2017. The most recent complaints have been primarily related to exterior elements such as trees and pavement, with no major building system issues reported. External to the building itself, there have been occasional parking-related concerns on the street, which were typically unable to be validated by responding officers.
