2742-2746 San Bruno Ave, San Francisco, CA 94134

The Xie/Liu Family Trust property at 2742-2746 San Bruno Ave is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1937 in San Francisco's Portola neighborhood. The building has undergone regular routine housing inspections, with significant historical complaints from 1995-1997 regarding serious maintenance issues, including no heat for an extended period in 1997, water damage, and deteriorating interior conditions. These problems were addressed and closed by 1997-1998.

The property has had several permitted repairs and upgrades over the years, including electrical service improvements in 2003, garage repairs in 2002, and a sidewalk permit in 2003. Multiple routine inspections between 1999 and 2010 identified various safety and maintenance requirements, most notably in 2006 when issues with fire safety equipment and gas meter instructions were documented. Most recently, there are active concerns as of 2024 regarding weather proofing on the building's siding and lead-based paint work practices.

There have been multiple reports in late 2024 regarding missing side sewer vent covers, and a paint peeling complaint was filed in July 2024. The building has experienced typical urban issues such as graffiti (including a recent case in October 2023), but these have been promptly addressed. A withdrawn permit from 2006 proposed converting part of the residential space to commercial use, but this work was not completed. The property has maintained basic compliance with building codes since the 1997-1998 period, though the recent violations regarding siding and paint work practices suggest some ongoing maintenance needs.
