3126 Balboa St, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 3126 Balboa Street in the Outer Richmond neighborhood, built in 1959 and currently owned by Credit Shelter Trust, has undergone several significant renovations and repairs in recent years. Most notably, in late 2023 and early 2024, the property received substantial updates including a kitchen remodel in Apartment #3 ($28,000) with associated electrical and plumbing work, and a sewer and house trap replacement ($14,000) completed in March 2024.

Earlier in 2023, the building underwent dry rot repairs on the front facade, replacing approximately 700 square feet of rotted plywood ($17,500). The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural integrity, with previous reroofing work completed in 2016 ($5,000) and 2000 ($4,500), as well as addressing dry rot issues with stud replacements and restucco work in 1992. The property experienced a cluster of fire safety-related violations in July 2000, including issues with smoke detectors, fire enclosure doors, and garbage receptacle placement, all of which were resolved by August 2000.

Since then, there have been no recorded building violations or complaints regarding fire safety or structural issues. Recent 311 calls from 2023-2024 primarily relate to external matters such as tree maintenance, sidewalk cleaning, and parking enforcement, with no calls indicating internal building problems. The most recent building improvements and timely responses to maintenance issues suggest ongoing attention to property upkeep, though some older permits remain on record as expired or completed without recorded follow-up.
