416 Hoffman Ave, San Francisco, CA 94114

The 416 Hoffman Avenue property is a three-story, 2-unit multi-family residential building located in Noe Valley, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by the Arthur D Fulton 2004 Trust. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most serious cluster of violations occurring in late 2023 when multiple problems were documented through complaint #202315238, including malfunctioning electrical outlets, inadequate heating, lack of carbon monoxide and smoke detectors, plumbing issues involving a malfunctioning sink, and mold/mildew concerns.

These violations were formally noted on November 3, 2023, with a final warning letter issued December 5, 2023, and were recorded as abated on January 16, 2024. In July 2024, the building faced additional maintenance challenges, documented in complaint #202426321, concerning problems with the heating system and water heater, though these issues were resolved within a week. The property has a concerning history of heating system problems, starting from October 2023 when tenants reported no heat upon moving in.

Earlier structural concerns were noted in 2004 regarding a decayed and rotted deck in the backyard, and between 2020-2021, there were multiple reported incidents of sewer vent issues. The building's sidewalk area has had recent attention, with a defect reported and resolved in August 2023. While planning records show some administrative office use requests that were ultimately disapproved, the most pressing current issues appear to have been addressed, though the building's history demonstrates recurring maintenance challenges, particularly relating to heating, plumbing, and basic safety systems.
