792 Courtlandt Avenue, Bronx, NY 10451

The three-story, two-unit tenement building at 792 Courtlandt Avenue in Melrose, owned by Top Funding Inc., has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over recent years. Most notably, as of July 2025, there are open violations from July 2024 in apartment 2R related to a defective smoke detector, missing mortice lock, broken bathroom tiles, wood floor issues, defective intercom system, and non-functional carbon monoxide detector.

Multiple recent complaints (March 2024) were filed regarding various building conditions including walls, floors, windows, and doors, though no violations were issued following HPD inspections. The building has also faced external compliance issues, with active DOB violations for failure to file low pressure inspection reports from 2018 and boiler inspection reports from 2017. The property has a documented history of pest management, with rodent inspections showing consistent bait application from 2023 through 2024, though records indicate past rat activity detected during inspections in August 2023.

Quarterly Bedbug reports since 2022 show no infestation cases or treatment requirements, indicating successful pest management in this regard. While various maintenance issues have been documented through 311 complaints and Housing Maintenance Code inspections, it's noteworthy that many recent complaints have been addressed without resulting in formal violations, though the presence of multiple open violations from 2024 suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The building's age (built in 1915) and classification as an old law tenement are consistent with its history of requiring routine maintenance and periodic inspections to address various building systems and safety requirements.
