Augrented Insights Report for 541 Isham Street

541 Isham Street is a 5-story, 46-unit residential building in Inwood, constructed in 1926 and currently owned by Besnik Celaj. The building has experienced recurring heat and hot water issues throughout early 2025, with multiple emergency complaints filed between February and March 2025, though many were closed without inspection access being granted. A water leak complaint from March 2025 remains open.

The property has also exhibited pest challenges, with rodent activity documented in 2023-2024, though a passed inspection in March 2025 suggests some resolution. Significant housing maintenance code violations were issued in October 2024 for Apartment 43A, including issues with mold, bathroom fixtures, self-closing doors, and floor repairs, while Apartment 21A had violations in 2024 related to plumbing and electrical systems. The building's energy compliance is under scrutiny, with an active violation from December 2021 regarding energy efficiency score display, though a previous benchmarking violation from 2019 was dismissed upon confirmation of submission.

The building's recent history shows ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in the areas of heating, plumbing, and pest control. While some issues appear to be addressed through complaint resolution processes, patterns of recurring complaints suggest persistent system difficulties. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with zero reported cases between 2019-2024. The building's two most recent rodent inspections show passed results in 2025, indicating potential improvements in pest management, though earlier inspections from 2023-2024 had documented rat activity and required bait application.
