1214-1216 38th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 1214-1216 38th Ave is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood. Built in 1945 and currently owned by the Robert H Forman Living Trust, this flats/duplex structure has undergone several significant improvements over the past few decades.

Most notably, in 2019, the building received substantial upgrades including a bathroom and kitchen remodel with new cabinets, appliances, plumbing fixtures, and electrical work, along with an electrical service upgrade that included installation of two meters and panels. The building's infrastructure has seen consistent maintenance, with documented work on plumbing systems including copper piping replacement in 2012 and 2014, and two water heater replacements in 2011. The property has experienced some maintenance issues in the past, particularly in the mid-1990s, when there were complaints filed regarding asbestos, rusty water, and electrical problems, though all these issues were marked as abated by 1997.

Earlier repairs included work on the back stairs in 2008 and various other improvements such as roofing work in 2005 and vinyl siding installation in 1987. More recent concerns have primarily involved building maintenance matters rather than structural or safety issues, with 311 calls in 2020-2021 related to waste management (toter placement) and sewer backups. The most recent incidents have been minor neighborhood concerns such as barking dogs (2023) and parking violations, along with routine street cleaning matters.
