The two-unit building at 1431-1433 Balboa Street in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Shirley M Holm Lvg Tr, was constructed in 1922 and has undergone numerous significant renovations and improvements over the past several years. Most notably, between 2020 and 2022, the property received substantial upgrades including a kitchen remodel (2021) with electrical and plumbing improvements, bathroom remodeling (2020) converting a tub to a walk-in shower, and window replacements. The building's systems have been modernized with the installation of new electrical meters and service for both units in 2004, and recent work has included proper earthquake bracing of water heaters (2004-2005) and various electrical upgrades.

There have been some concerning issues in the property's history, particularly a 2020 complaint regarding black mold in window casings and floor damage in unit 1433, though this complaint is listed as not active. A tenant buyout occurred in 2019 for $102,000 involving 2 tenants at unit 1431. The building has received attention for various maintenance issues in the past, including a 2008 complaint about peeling paint, cracked plaster, and other interior problems, though these issues appear to have been resolved.

Compliance work in 2004-2005 addressed multiple violations including water heater strapping, lead paint hazards, and repairs to various interior surfaces. The property continues to require periodic maintenance and updates, as evidenced by recent window replacement work in 2020 and various system upgrades. Recent to present issues in the vicinity primarily involve public space concerns such as sidewalk maintenance and graffiti, which are external to the building itself. The most recent service request related to the property is from March 2024 regarding non-offensive graffiti, though this may relate to the exterior rather than the building itself.
