1413 Zerega Avenue, Bronx, NY 10462

The two-family residential building at 1413 Zerega Avenue in Westchester Square, owned by Zakeya Khanom and constructed in 1991, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years. The most recent cluster of complaints in July 2023 involved multiple non-emergency issues, including problems with door/window frames, water leaks resulting in damp spots, electrical outlet/switch issues, mold, and both window and door frame concerns.

Notably, no violations were issued following the Department of Housing Preservation and Development's inspections of these complaints, which were all closed within a week of being filed. The property's history also reveals several significant maintenance challenges between 2021 and 2023, including a heat/hot water issue in September 2021 that was resolved through occupant verification, and multiple July 2021 complaints addressing water leaks (slow leak), door problems, and unsanitary conditions related to pest infestations.

While all these past complaints have been officially closed and no violations were recorded in the most recent inspection, the frequency and variety of maintenance issues over time suggest ongoing concerns with building upkeep. The 2023 complaints represent the most recent pattern of maintenance issues, occurring approximately two years after the previous cluster of problems in 2021.
