1250 9th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The 6-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1250 9th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by Randy D & Judy Cheng Revoc, has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance activities since its construction in 1963. Most notably, the building completed mandatory seismic retrofitting as a Tier 3 soft-story structure in 2017 (at a cost of $90,000), and a substantial fire alarm system upgrade in 2022-2023 to meet current safety standards (costing $12,000 and including installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas).

The building has addressed several important maintenance issues, including window replacements in 2017 (involving dry rot repairs and waterproofing work), reroofing in 2015, and the installation of a Ufer ground wire. The property has a history of routine housing inspections and some fire safety violations from 2007, which were subsequently resolved within a few months.

Recent maintenance has focused on exterior improvements, particularly addressing water damage and ensuring compliance with current building codes. While there have been occasional issues reported through 311 calls (primarily related to street cleaning, parking, and sidewalk conditions), these were generally resolved promptly and do not appear to indicate persistent problems with the building itself. The most recent building activities suggest a proactive approach to maintenance and compliance with safety requirements, with no active violations or major outstanding issues on record as of October 2023.
