162 17th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 162 17th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story residential building constructed in 1915, currently owned by James B & Karen J Chin since 2010. The multi-family residential building, classified as a Flats & Duplex, has undergone several significant improvements over the past three decades. The most substantial renovation occurred in 2004 when a comprehensive basement upgrade was completed, adding a playroom, guest room, half bath, and laundry facilities, along with side yard fill-ins, at a cost of $22,000.

This project was accompanied by a proper electrical upgrade in 2006, which included the installation of lights, switches, receptacles, circuits, and a sub-panel. The building has seen various maintenance and improvement work, including a complete reroofing in 1995, skylight installation and window modifications in 1990, and some front facade work in 1989 involving stucco adjustments around a plant box. The property's recent history shows minimal issues affecting resident safety or comfort, with only routine municipal service calls recorded.

These include a resolved Christmas tree pickup request in January 2022 and the removal of an abandoned vehicle in January 2009. One building permit from 2013 was issued for a street space permit, but it's worth noting this was a nominal cost permit ($1.00). The overall maintenance record suggests regular upkeep and improvements, with all major renovation work having been completed successfully under proper permits and inspections.
