395 Faxon Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 395 Faxon Avenue, owned by Hussam Abukhalaf, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent years. Most concerning, as of January 2025, there is an active complaint regarding mold in a bedroom, potentially related to water leaks. This follows from a September 2024 complaint about unauthorized bathroom renovations that allegedly caused water leakage, which resulted in active building violations for work completed without proper permits.

The property has a history of unpermitted work, including a 2015 incident involving unauthorized kitchen and bathroom remodeling that triggered multiple building and plumbing complaints. Earlier building modifications include a 1996 permit to convert the property from three to two units, and multiple renovation and repair permits dating back to the 1980s, including water damage repairs and various system upgrades. Maintenance issues appear to have persisted through recent years, with complaints about garbage and debris reported multiple times between late 2024 and early 2025, though these primarily relate to external conditions rather than building integrity.

A sewage backup incident was reported and resolved in November 2024, and there have been several parking-related enforcement actions near the property. Historical records show a significant tenant buyout at 406 Faxon Avenue in 2019 involving three tenants and totaling $60,000, though this is for a different building at the same address. The property has undergone various improvements over the years, including a recent shower wall replacement in October 2024, and several completed renovations in 2015 that included kitchen and bathroom updates. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with water-related issues and compliance with permitting requirements, with the most pressing current concerns being the active complaints about mold and water damage as of early 2025.
