Augrented Insights Report

The 27-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 70 Terra Vista Ave, owned by Romel California LLC, has undergone significant modifications since 2019, primarily involving the conversion of parking spaces into residential units. Between 2019-2020, the property added six R-2 ADUs, requiring extensive updates to fire safety systems including new fire sprinklers, alarm modifications, and the installation of numerous fire safety components.

Several building permits indicate work related to structural updates, including concrete footing strengthening and various plumbing improvements, with costs totaling over $115,000 during this period. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly regarding water damage and leakage, with multiple complaints about roof problems in 2022-2023. Notable violations have occurred concerning fire safety requirements, with the most recent sleeping area violation issued in November 2023.

The property has a history of interior surface problems, including mold, moisture issues, and lead paint concerns, with violations documented between 2001-2018. A significant tenant buyout was recorded in 2015 for two tenants at this address, and the building completed its Tier 2 soft-story seismic retrofit requirements. Recent records from 2024 show ongoing parking enforcement issues near the property, though these are not directly related to building conditions.
