886 Fairmount Place, Bronx, NY 10460

The 3-unit, 3-story building at 886 Fairmount Place in Tremont, owned by Steffan Owen and constructed in 2001, has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. Most notably, as of mid-2022, the building faced multiple simultaneous issues including electrical problems (both general lighting and no lighting complaints), a water leak, and mold concerns, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) found no violations. There was also a heat and hot water issue reported in February 2019 that was reportedly resolved during inspection.

The building currently has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2022-2024 that require attention, including missing required notices about carbon monoxide detectors, smoke detector requirements, gas leak procedures, and bedbug reporting, as well as a missing inspection certificate frame in the first-story public hall. The property has maintained a strong record of pest control, with annual rodent inspections consistently passing from 2015 through 2025. The most recent bedbug report from June 2022 indicated no infestations or eradications during the reporting period, covering November 2020 to October 2021.

While the building's recent history shows multiple maintenance issues, particularly in mid-2022, many of these were addressed promptly despite the lack of formal violations being issued. The open violations primarily relate to notification and documentation requirements rather than immediate safety concerns. The building's age, relatively recent construction date of 2001, generally suggests modern systems and code compliance, though the pattern of violations indicates some ongoing management oversight challenges.
