797 Fairmount Place, Bronx, NY 10460

The 6-unit, 4-story building at 797 Fairmount Place in Tremont, owned by Madrit Kurtishi, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most concerning are the recent complaints from April 2025 regarding unsanitary conditions involving mold and a power outage, both of which HPD was unable to properly inspect.

Throughout 2025, there has been a pattern of electrical issues, including complaints about wiring, outlets, and lighting in January 2025, though inspections found no housing law violations. Prior to these, in late 2024, there were multiple complaints about heat and hot water issues, with one instance in December 2024 showing temporary restoration of services during inspection. The building has documented housing maintenance code violations from 2023 primarily affecting apartments 3A and 3B, including issues with a leaking roof, broken plaster surfaces, missing window guards, defective carbon monoxide detectors, and mold under a kitchen sink.

Historical complaints show recurring concerns about the boiler system, with three complaints between 2018-2022, though inspections either found no violations or inspectors were unable to gain access. While there were two reports of rodent activity in early 2025, most recent inspections from 2019-2025 show consistently passing results. The building underwent multiple inspections throughout 2023-2025, with various issues being documented but generally resolving through inspection processes, though some complaints remained difficult for HPD to investigate due to access issues.
