1301 20th St, San Francisco, CA 94107

The two-story multi-family residential building at 1301 20th Street in Potrero Hill, owned by Frances Cuanang Revocable Living Trust, was constructed in 1927 and contains 4 apartment units. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the past decades, with the most recent major work being a reroofing project completed in 2016 at a cost of $11,500, and the replacement of a hearth heater in 2016. The building has faced multiple housing code violations and complaints, particularly between 2015-2018, including issues with drainage pipes, mold/mildew growth, interior wall damage, and window sealing problems.

Several of these violations were related to water damage and plumbing issues, one of which resulted in complaints from a neighboring property in 2013. There have also been concerns about garage usage (2015) and general maintenance compliance. The property underwent a significant electrical upgrade in 2003 with a 200-amp underground conversion installation.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural elements such as rear stairs and foundation work completed in 2004, and previous repairs to address dry rot in 1989. A routine inspection in 2015 revealed several violations that were subsequently addressed, including weather-proofing requirements and smoke detector compliance. A recent investigation into potential short-term rental activity in 2023 was closed with no violation found, indicating the unit was being used for home swapping without transfer of funds. Recent 311 calls for the area have primarily been related to graffiti removal, parking issues, and street cleaning, with a noise complaint submitted in July 2024 still open as of October 2023.
