954 Ingerson Ave, San Francisco, CA 94124

The two-unit, two-story residential building at 954 Ingerson Avenue in the Bayview neighborhood, owned by Levine Family Trust, has a complex history marked by various violations and complaints since its construction in 1910. Most notably, the property faced significant issues in 2000-2008, including multiple building violations related to heating, windows, smoke detection, and general maintenance, all of which were eventually abated by September 2008. The building underwent several improvements during this period, including electrical upgrades (200-amp service installed in 2005), rear additions, and garage renovations.

However, there were persistent concerns about unauthorized unit modifications, with complaints in 2004-2013 alleging illegal unit construction, including a basement in-law unit with kitchen and bathroom facilities. Recent concerns include a March 2023 complaint about maintenance issues (hole under sink, unsealed baseboards, and bathroom mold) and multiple reports in late 2024 regarding garbage and debris on the property. The building has a documented history of various repairs and improvements, including dry rot repair (1998), reroofing (1998), and vinyl siding installation (1991).

Fire safety inspections in 2018 noted combustible materials and weed issues, though these were subsequently corrected. The property has experienced recurring issues with unauthorized occupancy levels and unit modifications, as evidenced by multiple complaints from 2004 through 2013. Recent tenant buyout activity in the vicinity (at 970 Ingerson Avenue in 2021) suggests ongoing housing market dynamics in the area. The building's maintenance history shows periodic attention to violations and required repairs, though recurring maintenance issues and unauthorized modifications have been a persistent challenge throughout its history.
