262 27th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 262 27th Avenue property is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1975 in the Lake-Presidio neighborhood, currently owned by Diana S H Lai. The building has undergone several significant modifications and faced multiple regulatory challenges over its history. In the early 2000s, there were notable issues with unauthorized unit conversions, including an illegal ground-floor apartment with a bathroom behind the garage, which prompted a enforcement action (complaint #200343264) in 2003 that required restoration of the original parking layout and removal of unauthorized bathroom facilities.

This situation also triggered concerns about fire safety requirements, ventilation, and unpermitted electrical and plumbing work. The building underwent multiple renovations in 2005, including bathroom repairs, plumbing fixture replacements, and electrical work, amounting to approximately $6,000 in permitted improvements. The property has experienced several safety and compliance issues over the years, particularly during 2003-2004, when multiple housing code violations were identified regarding smoke detector requirements, interior surfaces, and gas utility shutoff tools, though these were all abated by August 2003.

A routine housing inspection in 2008 (complaint #200868693) revealed additional violations concerning fire safety equipment and gas meter instructions, which were promptly addressed within roughly 10 days. The most recent record for the property is a 2019 street cleaning service request for loose garbage, which was resolved by the Department of Public Works. Since 2008, there have been no recorded housing code violations or inspections, suggesting that the property has maintained compliance with housing regulations in recent years.
