2131 Grove St, San Francisco, CA 94117

2131 Grove Street is a two-story, five-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1911, currently owned by Chris and Tam Mak. The property has undergone several significant improvements and renovations over the past few years.

Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017, addressing important seismic safety requirements, and has a current status of "Work Complete, CFC Issued." The building has seen recent unit improvements, including a kitchen remodel in 2022 costing $7,500, and substantial renovations in 2018-2019 involving bathroom and kitchen updates in multiple units with associated plumbing and electrical work. The property has maintained regular compliance with safety inspections and requirements, though there was a documented failure to comply with the mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program in 2019, which was subsequently resolved by early 2021. Historical building violations from 2017 were addressed, including repairs to wood stairs and installation of carbon monoxide alarms.

Recent maintenance issues have included multiple sidewalk parking violations (2024) and one reported infestation case (September 2024). The building's maintenance history shows attention to both structural and safety improvements, including stair repairs in 2017, a powder room addition in 2018, and various routine maintenance tasks. The property has had regular housing inspections since the early 2000s, with previous violations including fire extinguisher maintenance and smoke detector requirements, all of which have been resolved.
