Augrented Insights Report

The property at 1283-1285 Silver Avenue, located in San Francisco's Portola neighborhood, is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1962 and currently managed by the Joseph J Vella Trust. The building underwent significant maintenance work in 2019-2024, including the installation of new high-efficiency furnaces and water heater adjustments in 2020-2024, vent modifications to address a 2019 Notice of Violation (NOV), and a recent sewage backup issue in August 2024 that was promptly resolved.

The property had a cluster of violations filed in July 2019, citing multiple safety and maintenance concerns including interior surface damage, lead paint handling, floor covering issues, and the need for smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, all of which were abated by October 2019. Historical maintenance records show attention to structural issues, including roof replacement in 2003 and dry rot repairs in 2015 involving siding replacement around windows on multiple floors. A fire complaint regarding combustible materials was recorded and resolved in January 2013.

The building has been subject to recent resident concerns in late 2024, with several 311 calls regarding illegal parking, noise, and sidewalk defects, though most have been resolved or are currently under review. The landlord history indicates at least one tenant buyout occurred at a nearby property (326 Sweeny Street) in 2018 for $24,000. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep and prompt response to violations, with the most recent improvements focusing on HVAC systems and compliance with safety requirements.
