10 West 184th Street, Bronx, NY 10468

The 2-family house at 10 West 184th Street in University Heights, owned by Moshe Toiv, has experienced significant maintenance issues over the past two years, particularly affecting the second-floor apartment. Between October 2023 and January 2025, multiple complaints were filed and investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), with violations issued for unsanitary conditions including mold and pest infestations.

Most recently, in December 2024, there were multiple complaints regarding plumbing issues (toilet and sink problems), flooring concerns, and both mold and pest problems, though HPD inspections found these conditions did not violate applicable housing laws, except for the pest violations. The building has several open violations as of July 2025, including issues with mold and a defective bathtub finish in the second-floor apartment, as well as problems with bathroom tiles and pest infestations. The property has undergone regular rodent inspections between 2022 and 2025, with the most recent inspections in March and January 2025 showing compliance, though there was a "Rat Activity" finding in January 2025.

While some initial compliance inspections have been passed, the building's history suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly regarding plumbing systems, pest control, and mold management. An illegal conversion complaint filed in January 2024 was investigated and found to warrant no violations. It's worth noting that while many of the HPD complaints from late 2024 were closed after inspection, this does not necessarily indicate resolution of the underlying issues, particularly as several new complaints were filed in the same month.
