1437 White Plains Road, Bronx, NY 10462

The two-family home at 1437 White Plains Road in Parkchester, owned by Rashal Ahmed, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past few years. Notably, there has been a persistent pattern of appliance-related complaints in 2023, particularly concerning refrigerators, with four separate incidents between April and July, all of which were classified as emergency situations and closed without violations.

The building has also faced multiple interior maintenance challenges, including door frame and door issues in April 2023, and more serious concerns in late 2022 including violations related to lead paint hazards, mold, and unsanitary conditions. The property has a documented history of heating system problems, with several emergency heat/hot water complaints filed between December 2021 and 2022, though these were eventually closed.

In December 2022, multiple violations were cited for Apartment 1, including issues with peeling paint, lead paint hazards, and various repair needs in both the bathroom and door systems. An illegal basement apartment situation was reported in September 2021, which was investigated but resulted in no access for inspectors. The building has undergone rodent inspections from 2012 through 2022, showing a pattern of both compliance and non-compliance with pest control requirements, with a passing result most recently in May 2022.
