1038-1042 Guerrero St, San Francisco, CA 94110

This three-story, 8-unit apartment building located at 1038-1042 Guerrero St in Noe Valley was built in 1908 and is currently owned by the Stanley N Grgich Revocable Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, most notably completing mandatory soft-story seismic upgrades in 2014 at a cost of $25,000, which have been certified as complete. A comprehensive renovation of the top unit's kitchen and bathroom was completed in 2012, including new cabinets, fixtures, and electrical work totaling $20,000.

The property has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most significant cluster of violations occurring in March 2023, including problems with paint, plumbing, fire safety equipment, weatherproofing, and smoke/carbon monoxide detector compliance. These violations were all addressed and abated by May 2023. A concerning complaint from August 2021 reported possible unauthorized construction involving residential units and egress path modifications, though this was resolved shortly thereafter.

The building's historical records show substantial improvements were made in 1983, including new plumbing, kitchens, bathrooms, and roof work, though these permits have since expired. The property has maintained compliance with routine apartment inspections, though past complaints from 2011 documented serious issues including severe paint flaking, water damage, and mold, which were resolved promptly. More recent 311 calls have primarily concerned external matters such as street cleaning, sidewalk blockages, and tree maintenance, with the most recent service requests dating back to 2023. The building is classified as a Tier 4 soft-story property, and while the most recent fire incident recorded was a "good intent call" with no civilian injuries, no significant fire-related issues have been noted in the building's recent history.
