1266-1268 De Haro St, San Francisco, CA 94107

The property at 1266-1268 De Haro Street is a 2-story, 2-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Guity Arash. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues, with the most concerning period occurring in 2015 when multiple violations were documented. These included problems with the building's electrical access, interior surfaces, fire safety equipment, and plumbing systems, which were all addressed and abated by November 2015. During this period, there were also complaints about accessible electrical panel access, fire extinguisher maintenance, and concerns about lead paint handling.

The building underwent various repairs in 2015, including installation of handrails, addressing wood fungus damage, and multiple plumbing fixes. The property's history shows attention to structural maintenance, with foundation repairs completed in 1998, and several improvements over the years including a kitchen remodel in 2005 and horizontal addition in 1989. More recent work includes plumbing maintenance in 2019 (replacement of housetrap) and ongoing exterior maintenance as evidenced by 311 calls regarding street cleaning and sidewalk maintenance between 2018 and 2024. Recent complaints in 2022-2024 have primarily related to external maintenance issues such as tree damage and sidewalk defects, rather than interior or structural concerns.

The building has a history of complaints about unauthorized units, with a particularly notable investigation in 2015 regarding a possible illegal in-law unit in the basement, though this complaint was marked as "Not Active" in 2015. The property's recent and historical maintenance record shows generally responsive handling of violations and repairs, with most issues being addressed through appropriate permits and completed work. While the 2015 violations cluster presents the most significant concern in the building's recent history, all documented violations have been resolved, and there have been no major building code violations recorded since 2015. The property has undergone regular maintenance and improvements, with appropriate permits obtained for necessary repairs and upgrades.
