25-27 Vicente St, San Francisco, CA 94127

The 25-27 Vicente Street property is a two-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located in West Portal, constructed in 1962 and currently owned by the Karen Kai-hwa Ho Trust. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past two decades, with particular attention to addressing recurring issues with dry rot. The most recent major works included electrical system upgrades in 2022, with the installation of new 320-amp service and three sub-panels for each area, and window replacements in 2019-2020, which required associated stucco work due to dry rot around windows.

Historical records show consistent attention to structural maintenance, with previous fixes for dry rot in different areas of the building in 2006 and 2007, along with balcony railing improvements. The property has experienced occasional fire safety inspections, with violations noted in 2011 regarding alarm systems and a roof access issue in late 2019, though these appeared to be resolved. Two smoke detector activations were recorded with no actual fires or civilian injuries.

Recent 311 calls from January 2025 primarily relate to street cleaning issues, including reports of garbage, debris, and overflowing city garbage cans, though these external matters do not directly impact the building's internal conditions. The building underwent a condo conversion process with E-Condo approval, and a notable tenant buyout occurred in 2020 for two tenants at a value of $101,000. While the property has required regular maintenance, particularly regarding moisture-related issues, records indicate that most permitted work has been completed appropriately and the building appears to be actively maintained under its current ownership.
