Augrented Insights Report for 231 Brook Avenue

The 32-unit, 5-story tenement building at 231 Brook Avenue in Mott Haven, owned by Jed Realty Corp, has experienced several concerning maintenance issues in recent years, most notably throughout 2025. Between January and March 2025, multiple complaints were filed regarding plumbing (toilet and sink issues), window frames, refrigerator problems, electrical issues (bell/intercom), ceiling plaster, and unsanitary conditions including pest infestations and mold, though HPD inspections were unable to be completed for these complaints.

The building also has several active violations related to energy efficiency requirements, including failures to file benchmarking reports and display energy scores, with the most recent violations issued between 2023-2024. Significant historical violations reveal ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in Apartment 3B, where multiple violations were documented in 2022 including rodent and cockroach infestations, missing safety devices (smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector), peeling paint, and window guard issues.

The building's management has faced penalties for various infractions, including a 2021 violation for encroaching on public right-of-way with a wooden shed, and multiple violations related to unpermitted work and obstructed exit passageways. The property experienced a building shaking/vibration complaint in June 2025, and while past rodent inspections from 2011-2022 consistently passed, recent pest-related complaints in 2025 suggest ongoing sanitation challenges. However, the bedbug reporting shows no recorded infestations in recent years, with the most recent filings from 2023-2024 indicating zero affected units.
