439-443 Judah St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 439-443 Judah Street in the Inner Sunset, owned by Hui Otto, has undergone several significant modifications since 2010. The most substantial work occurred in 2015 when a ground floor unit was legalized, including the installation of a kitchen, bedroom, and living room, with the building receiving sprinkler system modifications under permit 201502067730. Additional improvements included comprehensive plumbing and electrical upgrades for the new unit, though recent violations filed in July 2024 have raised concerns about incomplete landscaping, permeable surfaces, and the absence of ground floor sprinkler system permits related to this work, with active enforcement proceedings ongoing as of September 2024.

The building underwent various other improvements between 2008-2011, including bathroom and kitchen renovations on multiple floors, front facade modifications, and interior room reconfigurations. A notable building complaint was filed in 2021 regarding noise concerns related to a neighboring gym's operations, though this was marked as not active by April 2022. Historical records show a brief heating and hot water issue in 2009 that was resolved within approximately two months.

The property has experienced several maintenance and service requests in recent years, primarily related to exterior and public space concerns, including multiple general cleaning and garbage-related incidents in 2022-2024. A complaint regarding sewer vent issues was documented in December 2021, which was subsequently resolved. The building's permit history reveals a pattern of unit conversions and safety system upgrades, with the most recent inspection-related violations suggesting potential compliance issues with previously approved work. The property's age (built in 1905) and history of renovations suggest ongoing maintenance and monitoring of building systems and compliance requirements will be necessary, particularly in light of the recent active building violations.
