1795 38th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122
The 21-unit, 2-story apartment building at 1795 38th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood, owned by the Totah 2007 Trust, has undergone significant safety and infrastructure improvements since its 1977 construction. Most notably, the building completed a comprehensive fire safety system upgrade in 2023-2024, including smoke detector replacement, new pull stations, radio monitoring, and low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas, followed by additional waterflow device and sprinkler bell installations.
The building has also addressed its seismic vulnerabilities through a completed soft-story retrofit in 2016. Recent concerns have emerged regarding Unit 106, with multiple complaints in 2024 about mold, window leaks, and water damage. The building's maintenance history shows regular updates to various systems, including a 2017 re-roofing, 2019 window replacements, and various plumbing and electrical improvements.
While there have been several fire safety violations recorded between 2016-2024, including issues with sprinklers, alarms, and sleeping area requirements, most have been promptly corrected. The commercial portion of the property has experienced periods of vacancy and storefront issues between 2017-2021, including complaints about work being done without permits and construction-related disturbances in late 2016. Recent tenant buyouts in the vicinity (not directly related to this address) suggest ongoing rental market activity in the area.
