442-444 27th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The two-unit residential building at 442-444 27th Avenue in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by House Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1923. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most substantial recent work occurring in 2017 when the building received electrical upgrades to the common area, including new lighting and outlets, and significant structural work including the replacement of a stairway for a second means of egress and garage reinforcement totaling $20,000.

Earlier renovations in 2016 included the removal of old lath and plaster ceilings and walls in the lower apartment, replaced with modern drywall, along with an electrical upgrade that included new circuits and outlets. The building's maintenance history shows consistent attention to safety and modernization, with earlier improvements including a complete reroofing in 2006 and a kitchen remodeling project in the lower unit in 2005 that included electrical system upgrades. The property has demonstrated proactive maintenance and safety improvements, with particular attention paid to egress systems and electrical infrastructure.

The building has also required three street space permits in 2017 and 2016, suggesting work that may have temporarily impacted the public right-of-way. While there were multiple reports of loose garbage in the vicinity of the property between September and December 2015, and one parking enforcement issue in 2020, these general neighborhood issues do not specifically reflect on the building's condition or management. The extensive permit history indicates regular upkeep and modernization efforts, with no recorded safety violations or major structural issues in recent years.
