1419 12th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 1419 12th Avenue in the Inner Sunset is a three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1947, currently owned by the Law Family Trust. The building has experienced several significant issues over its history, most notably in 2002 when illegal construction work was completed at the ground floor garage area, including the installation of new dividing walls to create additional rooms, along with unauthorized electrical work.

This situation led to multiple building violations and fines, though the matter was ultimately resolved in February 2004 after the completion of proper permits and inspections costing approximately $18,000. More recently, a serious maintenance issue has emerged, with a tenant filing a complaint in September 2023 regarding persistent mold problems in the bathroom sink and water leaks around the bathtub, which have reportedly been ongoing since 2019. The building's maintenance record shows some attention to infrastructure updates, including an electrical upgrade in 2003 and a plumbing permit from 2015 for house trap replacement.

The property has also generated multiple 311 calls over the years, primarily related to tree maintenance issues in 2015 and 2016, though these were generally resolved through proper channels. There have been several reports of abandoned vehicles near the property between 2009 and 2016, though all were resolved quickly when the vehicles were found to be gone upon inspection. While there have been no active building violations since 2004, the recent water-related maintenance issues suggest some concerns about the building's current upkeep.
