491 Fletcher Place, Bronx, NY 10457

The 80-unit, 6-story building at 491 Fletcher Place in Belmont, owned by Felia Olave and constructed in 2010, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in May 2025, there was a cluster of service requests regarding various building conditions including door/window issues, mold, wall problems, plumbing, and electrical concerns, though these inspections were unable to be completed. The building has also experienced persistent elevator concerns, with multiple complaints about single device operation and no alternate service between 2022 and 2024, though inspections consistently found no violations warranting citations.

Recent rodent inspections show variable results, with rat activity reported in multiple inspections throughout 2024, while a May 2025 inspection passed. The building's maintenance history reveals several patterns of recurring issues, particularly in apartments A17 and A22, which have experienced multiple violations and complaints between 2020 and 2023. These include issues with plumbing fixtures, electrical systems, and intercom functionality.

A bedbug infestation was documented in 2020-2021 affecting two units, though subsequent annual reports from 2021 through 2024 indicate no further infestations. Two building-wide violations were recorded regarding external low pressure inspection documentation and energy efficiency display requirements, though both were dismissed. The property has generally maintained compliance with inspections, achieving passing results for most recent rodent inspections, including a May 2025 inspection, though must be noted that rodent activity was documented in multiple inspections in 2024. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues, the majority have been addressed and closed through the appropriate channels, while recent complaints continue to indicate some persistent building condition concerns that require follow-up inspections.
