Augrented Insights Report

The 66-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 102-126 Cardenas Avenue, owned by Parkmerced Owners LLC, has a significant history of maintenance and habitability issues, particularly in recent years. Most concerning is a series of moisture-related problems documented in late 2024, where tenants reported persistent condensation on walls, insect infestations including maggots, and structural defects leading to unsanitary living conditions. These issues appear to be ongoing, with similar complaints about mold, water retention, and decay in various locations throughout the building reported between 2023 and 2024.

The building, constructed in 1942, underwent several major improvements in the mid-2000s, including voluntary seismic upgrades ($122,250 in total), reroofing projects, and extensive electrical system updates including new wiring, plugs, switches, and light fixtures. However, historical violations related to lead paint hazards and mold/mildew issues have reemerged, with particular concerns about lead-based paint handling procedures noted in 2018. The property's maintenance record shows both completed and ongoing work, with recent plumbing improvements including gas line work in 2019, but the most pressing concerns seem to revolve around moisture management and building envelope integrity.

The building has had regular roof maintenance (2001, 2007) and electrical system updates (2007), but the frequency of recent tenant complaints suggests a need for more immediate attention to water intrusion and related environmental issues. Recent fire safety concerns were also noted in early 2024 regarding sleeping area requirements, though this violation was issued and marked as closed on the same day. The property has maintained compliance with basic building codes through various permits and inspections, but the persistence of moisture-related issues and their impact on tenant health and safety appears to be the most significant current challenge facing the building, based on available records.
