The 82-unit, 6-story building at 3433 Dekalb Avenue in Norwood, currently owned by Nuva Realty, LLC, has experienced significant and serious issues, culminating in a major fire incident in August 2026 believed to be caused by electrical arcing from ceiling wiring. This fire resulted in heavy damage to the 6th floor and compromised the entire building's structure, leading to a full vacate order. Following the fire, multiple Class C (Immediately Hazardous) violations were issued, including problems with electrical service in apartments 6D and 6E, as well as gas supply issues in the kitchens of these same apartments. The building has a documented history of maintenance challenges, with 60 Class B and 48 Class C housing violations over the past seven years, along with 165 housing complaints and 161 311 service requests. Recent months have shown recurring issues with unsanitary conditions, including sewage problems and pest infestations.

What's in the 3433 Dekalb Avenue report
Is 3433 Dekalb Avenue rent-stabilized?
Rent stabilization caps how much your rent can rise and protects your right to renew. Here's how this building scores on the four signals that usually point to it.
Based on public NYC records. Not legal advice — verify with the DHCR (Division of Housing and Community Renewal) at apps.hcr.ny.gov.
Is 3433 Dekalb Avenue covered by Good Cause Eviction?
New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.
Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.
