265-267 Lee Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112

The Cao Family Living Trust owns this 2-unit residential building located at 265-267 Lee Ave in the Ingleside neighborhood, a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1921. Significant recent improvements were made in 2020 when both units underwent substantial renovations, including the addition of bathrooms, kitchen remodels, and window replacements, with a total investment of approximately $196,000. This work was accompanied by the replacement of furnaces and installation of new tankless water heaters.

Earlier maintenance history reveals addressed issues with exterior stairs in 2012, and various plumbing upgrades in 2014 including bathroom fixtures and kitchen improvements. The building has experienced several concerning tenancy-related issues over the past decade. In 2015, there were multiple complaints regarding storage issues including garbage bins on back stairs, blockages in fire escape routes, and concerns about the condition of rear stairs.

A cluster of violations documented in 2012-2013 involved lead paint hazards, weatherproofing repairs, exterior stairs maintenance, and electrical system upgrades, which were all subsequently addressed and abated. The property has generated multiple 311 calls in recent years (2022-2024) primarily related to street cleaning and sidewalk maintenance, including reports of human waste, debris, and graffiti. Historical complaints from 1996 suggested unauthorized occupancy of a garage space, though this appears to be an isolated incident from the distant past. While the property has had its share of maintenance challenges, particularly regarding stair safety and storage issues, recent renovations suggest significant reinvestment in the building's infrastructure and living conditions.
