Augrented Insights Report

895 31st Avenue is a 3-story, 9-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1929, currently owned by Chen Zhao Teng in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood. The property has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure upgrades in recent years, including a completed fire alarm system upgrade in 2024 costing $25,900 to comply with current fire code requirements, and the replacement of 10 electrical panels and meters in December 2023. The building successfully completed mandatory soft-story retrofit work in 2016, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements.

Recent tenant complaints reveal persistent maintenance and safety issues, particularly regarding heating and window conditions. In early 2024, a complaint highlighted problems with broken windows and inadequate heating, affecting unit temperature maintenance, particularly concerning given reports of a premature baby in one of the affected units. A November 2024 complaint indicates ongoing issues with access to kitchen facilities, while a March 2023 complaint noted problems with a fire escape component.

The building has experienced recurring fire system maintenance needs, with violations and complaints about alarm systems and extinguishers dating from 2019-2024, though these issues have generally been corrected when cited. Historical records show earlier concerns about heat systems and fire safety compliance in 2002 and 2006, suggesting some recurring patterns of maintenance challenges. The property has undergone regular infrastructure maintenance, including roof replacement in 1993 and various utility system updates, though there have been occasional issues with garbage management and parking violations in the vicinity, as documented in recent 311 calls.
