1327 45th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 1327 45th Avenue in the Outer Sunset, built in 1907, has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2017 when $64,000 was spent on exterior siding repairs and roofing improvements. The building has experienced recurring issues with its plumbing and sewer systems, as evidenced by multiple construction permits for water heater installations in 2010 and six documented sewer backup incidents between 2019 and 2024.

A series of housing complaints from 2010 revealed various maintenance concerns, including problems with windows, hot water supply, and ceiling leaks in the laundry room, though these issues appear to have been resolved. The building has a history of safety-related violations and complaints, particularly in 2000 and 2004, when inspectors noted concerns about lead paint hazards, interior surfaces, and fire safety equipment. More recent concerns include an active housing inspection from 2021 regarding common areas and a past complaint about multiple flammables stored in the garage.

The property has undergone several major renovations, including bathroom and kitchen remodeling in the early 1990s and siding repairs in 2017. The water heater management situation, particularly concerning Unit 4 and the laundry facilities, generated multiple complaints in 2010, though this appears to have been addressed with the installation of new equipment. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance issues, most documented violations and complaints have been resolved through proper channels, with the exception of the currently active routine inspection from 2021.
