Augrented Insights Report

The Pearl Family Trust owns this 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1961, located in Noe Valley. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past 15 years, including a complete roof replacement in 2009 ($12,500), a plumbing upgrade in 2023 (main sewer line replacement), and various interior renovations in 2009 including bathroom and kitchen remodels with associated electrical work ($18,000).

A notable recent development is a filed permit in October 2024 for accessibility improvements including a portable ramp and door hardware modifications. The building's history includes several maintenance and compliance issues, particularly during 2009 when multiple complaints were filed regarding unauthorized construction work above the store, lead paint concerns, and problems with temporary construction modifications. A fire complaint regarding blocked exits was reported and resolved in April 2019.

More recent concerns include multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding noise and parking violations. The most recent filed complaint as of 2024 involves illegal postings, though this was subsequently resolved. While the building has experienced occasional maintenance issues and tenant concerns over the years, many of these have been addressed through proper permitting and repairs.
