262 18th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 262 18th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1916, currently owned by the Gin Family Trust. The building's maintenance and renovation history includes several significant projects, with the most notable being a completed kitchen remodel in 1986 that included new sheetrock installation in three bedrooms, and earlier completed work in 1985 involving trim, base, siding, and foundation modifications. However, there have been concerning safety issues in the past, particularly in 1996 when complaints were filed regarding an illegal basement unit, unsafe sunroom structure, and problematic rear stilts, along with reports of pest infestations.

Additionally, there were documented electrical safety concerns in 1994-1995 involving "hot wiring," along with another report of rodent problems. The building's more recent history shows relatively limited structural modifications, with the most recent permit being a $1 street space permit issued in 2012. Recent complaints and incidents primarily involve external issues such as parking violations, with multiple reports of sidewalk parking between 2018 and 2024, including issued citations and warnings.

There was also one noise complaint in 2021 regarding entertainment that was deemed invalid. A false fire alarm incident was recorded, but no injuries were reported. While the building has maintained its basic functions over the years, the historical complaints regarding structural safety and pest issues from the 1990s are notable, though there have been no recent similar complaints on record.
