48 San Jose Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 48 San Jose Avenue in Noe Valley, owned by Barry Dermot & Veerathanong, was constructed in 1986 and has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over its lifetime. Most notably, in 2016, units 1 and 3 received comprehensive remodels of their kitchens and bathrooms, with associated plumbing and electrical work costing approximately $66,100. Earlier maintenance records show attention to structural integrity, including dry rot repairs on the front elevation in 2011 (cost: $8,000), window replacement in 2011, and two separate reroofing projects completed in 1995 and 2000 (costs: $17,800).

The building's most significant historical issue occurred in 2005-2007, when violations were documented related to fire safety and utility management, including requirements for fire-proofing repairs, gas utility shutoff tools, and egress path obstructions. These violations were all successfully abated by November 2007. The property has recently experienced some exterior maintenance challenges, with multiple reports of garbage and debris on public walkways in mid-2024, including reports of abandoned furniture and mattresses.

There have also been recurring issues with vehicles blocking the driveway, as evidenced by multiple parking enforcement requests in 2024. The most recent incident in 2025 involved a complaint about sidewalk parking. While these recent issues indicate some ongoing maintenance challenges in the surrounding area, it's worth noting that these external matters do not necessarily reflect on the building's internal condition or management.
