636-638 48th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 636-638 48th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood is a 2-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1938. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, with the most recent work focusing on kitchen and bathroom remodels in 2021-2022, including electrical and plumbing upgrades at a total cost of $110,000. The building has received attention to its infrastructure, including a reroofing project in 2021 ($8,000) and window replacements in 2014, when 12 new windows were installed, including 5 fiberglass windows facing the street.

The property has experienced two notable code enforcement issues in 2015-2017, both of which have been resolved. In 2015, an unpermitted installation of two new electrical panels was addressed, followed by a 2017 violation regarding unpermitted garage door replacements. Both issues were properly rectified and closed by February 2017.

More recently, there have been several exterior maintenance concerns documented through 311 calls, including reports of graffiti (one case remains open as of May 2024), street cleaning needs, and three reports of abandoned vehicles in 2024. A damaged tree incident was reported and canceled in January 2023. The building appears to be maintained with regular updates to core systems, and historical records show proper permitting and inspections for most major work, though there were two instances of unpermitted work in 2015-2017 that were subsequently addressed through proper channels.
