1129-1133 Balboa St, San Francisco, CA 94118

This three-story, multi-family residential building located at 1129-1133 Balboa Street in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood was built in 1905 and recently underwent several maintenance and repair projects. Most notably, in 2023, the building received attention for dry rot issues, with repairs completed in May 2023 costing $10,800, followed by further work in October 2023 including roof and wall replacement at the exterior stair in the front setback, along with plumbing and electrical upgrades for roof drainage and front entry lighting. The building's maintenance history shows ongoing attention to infrastructure, including a sewer pipe replacement in 2015, water heater updates in 2008, and various street space permits in 2016-2017.

The property has experienced several compliance and safety-related issues in the past, though all have been addressed. A routine housing inspection in 2008 revealed multiple violations including the need for handrails, removal of egress obstructions, installation of seismic braces, and proper plumbing permits - all of which were abated by April 18, 2008. There was also a combustible materials issue in 2006 that was resolved in 2015.

More recent concerns have primarily involved parking-related complaints, with multiple reports of driveway blocking between 2023-2024, and a current open case regarding potential tree damage to the property from June 2024. The building's current owners, Saint James Balboa LLC, have demonstrated ongoing commitment to maintaining the property, as evidenced by the most recent repairs and improvements. The building's historical records show regular maintenance and upgrades, though some areas such as parking management remain an ongoing challenge. While the property has a history of various building code and safety violations, these were addressed promptly when identified, and no active violations are currently on record.
