3582-3586 18th St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 6-unit multi-family residential building at 3582-3586 18th Street, owned by the Manlapaz Family Trust, is a three-story apartment complex built in 1905 in the Mission Dolores neighborhood. The building's maintenance history reveals several concerning patterns, particularly between 2001 and 2013, with multiple violations and complaints regarding safety and habitability issues. In 2001, the property faced significant violations including lead paint hazards, fire egress obstructions, plumbing issues with deteriorated drainage pipes, and security concerns with exterior doors.

Two major complaints in 2007 reported severe maintenance issues including lack of heat, water damage, and broken windows. More recent history includes a significant cluster of problems in 2013 with reports of insects/rodents, mold, and a dilapidated structure with leaking ceilings. The building underwent some improvements over the years, including window replacements in 2013 (three windows at the back of the building) and repair of rear stairs in 1989.

However, more recent fire safety violations were noted in August 2020, regarding blocked exits, fire extinguisher maintenance, and exit signage, which were subsequently abated. The property has experienced recurring issues with drainage and water management, with multiple complaints about water flow problems affecting neighboring properties (notably in 2001 and 2002). While there have been some routine maintenance calls and minor violations in recent years, the frequency and severity of complaints appear to have decreased since 2013, with only one documented fire violation in 2020 and no major habitability complaints in recent records. The most recent building permit on file is from 2013, and there have been no recorded tenant buyouts for this address.
