Augrented Insights Report

The property at 1163 South Van Ness Avenue in the Inner Mission is a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1876, currently owned by the Nina Geneson Living Trust. In 2019-2020, the building underwent significant renovations including the addition of three ADUs on the 1st floor, voluntary seismic upgrades, and comprehensive interior remodels of the 2nd and 3rd floor units.

A new fire sprinkler system was installed in 2021 to enhance safety, along with modern HVAC improvements including radiant floor heating. The property has experienced several notable incidents related to construction activity, particularly during 2021-2022, including multiple noise complaints, issues with construction plates in the street, and the installation of an apparently unauthorized security fence that is currently under review for code compliance.

A building violation was filed in 2019 regarding excavation work exceeding permitted limits, though this was abated within one week. The property's maintenance and regulatory history shows attention to safety upgrades, though recent complaints suggest ongoing concerns about construction-related impacts on the neighborhood, particularly during the 2021-2022 period. Notably, the building's tenant buyout records from 2018 indicate three buyouts totaling over $200,000, suggesting a significant transition period prior to the recent renovations.
