2655-2657 El Camino Del Mar, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 2655-2657 El Camino Del Mar is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1967, currently owned by Herman Ha Lam and Julie Tran. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past decade, with the most recent being a roof repair in December 2021 due to storm damage, costing $7,000.

In mid-2012, substantial work was completed to legalize additional living spaces on the ground floor, including two bedrooms, one bathroom, laundry facilities, and storage, with associated electrical and plumbing upgrades totaling approximately $38,000. This followed a June 2012 complaint about unpermitted work, which generated multiple permits to bring the modifications into compliance. The building has a history of maintenance and compliance issues that have since been resolved, including violations in 2004 and 2006 related to guardrails, egress obstructions, plant overgrowth, sanitation, and various interior maintenance requirements, all of which were abated by November 2008.

There was also a complaint in 2021 regarding unpermitted reroofing work, though records indicate this was addressed through the subsequent permitted roof repair. Recent maintenance issues have been relatively minor, with the most recent being a missing side sewer vent cover reported in August 2023, which was promptly resolved. The building's location has experienced various neighborhood issues typical of urban environments, including several reports of abandoned vehicles and parking violations between 2019 and 2022, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or management.
