New update: November 10, 2025 - Update: Mayor Daniel Lurie has failed to address the concerns of Park Merced residents. District 7 Supervisor Myrna Melgar and SF City Attorney David Chiu have also remained unresponsive to our community. Consequently, it is evident that Governor Gavin Newsom will not act either.

On May 30, 2025- The new receiver Douglas Wilson Companies has assumed control of Parkmerced, the receiver has been “given authority from the Superior Court and substantial capital from the lender to immediately focus on repairing and replacing health and safety deficiencies, including inoperable elevators, interior and exterior lighting, water intrusion, and mold issues,” CEO Douglas Wilson said in a statement. Douglas Wilson Companies, which took control of Parkmerced after its owner Maximus Real Estate Partners defaulted on $1.8 billion in loans.

I have concerns about the new receiver, Douglas Wilson, particularly due to his association with Brick & Timber (B+T) Property Management. The staff at B+T have exhibited behavior that is hostile, unprofessional, incompetent, disrespectful, condescending, unethical, and discriminatory. They appear to hold personal biases, including negative stereotypes and micro-aggressions, which adversely affect our low-income, disabled, and Section 8 tenants. In comparison, B+T seems even less satisfactory than our previous property management company, Maximus Property. 

B+T fails to acknowledge that they inherited the issues from Maximus Property Management when they assumed control.

Currently, B+T communication manager Alex S. is one of the most toxic and dangerous employees with B+T. If you call her out on her criminal bullying behavior, she will use her privileged seat of power to illegally and falsely remove you from your unit, by making retaliatory malicious false accusations against you. to get you wrongfully evicted and even terminated from you housing subsidy program and contracts. Alex S. chose to misuse her authority and, with a stroke of her pen, deliberately created false accusations against us tenants here, which is both malicious and criminal. Alex S. has also exploited the Parkmerced lease violations against us tenants, to further her retaliatory, toxic, hateful, racist, personal prejudices, as well as discriminatory and biased micro-aggressions directed at tenants for being Section 8, low-income and disabled tenants. I am currently being forced into a constructive eviction because of these decaying, mold-infested units.

For the record, there are 3,321 residents, 11 high-rises, and a mix of townhouses. Parkmerced is a World War II-era complex that was built during the 1940s and 1950s. These places have deteriorated due to poor management and apathetic overseers whose sole focus was on personal profit, driven by pure greed!

I AM CURRENTLY FIGHTING HER (Alex S.), B+T AND THEIR LEGAL TEAM!
