Augrented Insights Report for 235 East 27th Street

The 5-story, 20-unit building at 235 East 27th Street in Kips Bay, owned by Herbert Chavez, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in 2024-2025. Most notably, in June 2025, the building received violations for water leak/damp spot and mold conditions, marking a concerning recent pattern of moisture-related problems. Earlier in 2025, there were multiple reports of unsanitary conditions including pests.

The property has a documented history of rodent-related issues, with April 2025 showing a passing inspection but previous inspections in 2024 indicating rat activity. Other maintenance concerns include heating system failures in 2022 and 2023 (both classified as emergencies), and various violations regarding fire safety and building maintenance codes. The building has undergone several inspections and corrective actions over the years, with varying degrees of compliance.

Notably, a 2021 boiler violation resulted in a penalty, and multiple 2022 violations related to fire escape maintenance and public hall conditions were addressed. While the property has maintained consistent bedbug-free status since 2019, other persistent issues remain, including recent concerns about water damage, pest control, and building systems maintenance. The most recent housing maintenance code violations from May 2024 involve problems with self-closing doors and fire safety materials, though previous issues related to appliances and plumbing were reportedly resolved during 2024 inspections.
