1392 Funston Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The 1392 Funston Avenue property is a 2-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Chris Mak. The building successfully completed its mandatory Tier 3 soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $70,000, bringing it into compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. The property has undergone several significant interior renovations since 2014, including substantial remodeling of apartments #2, #3, and #5, particularly focusing on kitchen and bathroom improvements, with permits issued and work completed between 2014-2018 totaling over $200,000.

Of particular note is a recent issue with a rotten staircase reported in October 2024, which was abated by December 2024. The building's maintenance history reveals past concerns with safety systems and habitability that have since been addressed. In 2002, violations were documented regarding stairs, fire safety equipment, garbage chute, fire escape, and window repair needs, which were all abated by July 23, 2002.

A 2005 complaint highlighted faulty wiring and heating system failures, while a 2014 complaint documented unauthorized renovation work in units #2 and #4. Recent routine inspections in 2024 have shown some ongoing maintenance needs, including the aforementioned staircase issue. The property has maintained regular compliance with building and safety codes since addressing these earlier violations, though there have been multiple recent 311 calls (as recent as January 2025) related to external debris and maintenance issues in the immediate vicinity of the building.
