939 East 181st Street, Bronx, NY 10460

The three-family residential building at 939 East 181st Street in West Farms, owned by Francisco Rodriguez, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past two years that warrant attention. Most recently, in early 2024, there were complaints about both heating/hot water issues and problems with electric/gas ranges, though HPD inspections found no violations in the appliance case and confirmed resolution of the heating issue.

The building currently has an open Housing Maintenance Code violation from April 2024 related to bedbug reporting requirements, which has been a recurring compliance issue over multiple years. Specifically, violations were recorded in 2021, 2022, and 2023 regarding the failure to file the mandatory annual bedbug report, though these previous violations appear to have been closed.

The property's maintenance record shows consistent attention to pest control, with the most recent bedbug report (filed May 2023) covering the period from November 2021 to October 2022, indicating no infested units during that time. Importantly, the building has maintained a clean record in terms of rodent control, having passed all nine inspections conducted between 2015 and 2025. While the recent heating and appliance issues have been addressed, and the building generally demonstrates good rodent management and bedbug control (when properly reported), the ongoing bedbug reporting violation and the history of heating/hot water issues suggest areas requiring continued monitoring and compliance efforts.
