51 Buena Vista Ter, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 4-unit multi-family residential building at 51 Buena Vista Terrace, owned by the Shadi Rostami Living Trust, has undergone significant renovations since 2013, including comprehensive updates to three of its four units involving kitchen and bathroom remodeling, window replacements, and electrical upgrades totaling over $100,000. The building's basement improvements were notable, with permits filed in 2013 for finishing work, new bathrooms, and a wet bar area, though there was one complaint in 2014 regarding unauthorized excavation work.

Electrical system upgrades were substantial, featuring new 100-amp subpanels for each unit and complete rewiring, with some permits marked as "Expired" or "Cancelled" despite completion of the work. The building's history includes several important maintenance and safety updates, particularly in response to a 2002 violation notice that identified multiple safety issues including the need for handrails, fire escape maintenance, smoke detectors, and gas meter instructions, all of which were abated by 2003. The property underwent routine housing inspections in 2009, 2010, and 2015, with no active violations noted in recent years.

A complaint regarding illegal short-term rentals was reported and closed in 2017, with the property owners instructed to remove Airbnb listings. Recent maintenance issues have included sewer problems in 2021 and occasional parking enforcement cases outside the building, though these are typical urban concerns not directly related to building conditions. The property has maintained active compliance with building codes since addressing the 2002 violations, with no significant safety issues reported in recent years.
