804 Elsmere Place, Bronx, NY 10460

804 Elsmere Place is a 3-story, 2-family house located in Tremont, built in 2003 and currently owned by Phh Mortgage Corporation. The building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water, most recently documented in December 2024 and November 2024, with complaints marked as emergencies; access to apartments was not granted for inspections in one instance, while in another, heat and hot water were reported to be restored during inspection.

Prior to these recent concerns, there was an electric power outage reported in June 2023, which was inspected with no violations noted, and a significant water leak incident recorded in December 2018 that also resulted in access issues during inspection. The Department of Buildings records show an illegal conversion complaint in July 2020, which resulted in an OATH violation, and most notably, an active violation from December 2020 regarding a failure to certify correction on an immediately hazardous Class 1 ECB violation.

Given the pattern of utility-related complaints, particularly around heating systems, and the presence of the active DOB violation, these infrastructure-related issues appear to be a persistent concern in this relatively young building. All complaints have been closed, indicating resolution of the immediate issues, though some required tenants to file new complaints for proper inspection follow-up.
