782 East 214th Street, Bronx, NY 10467

The three-unit building at 782 East 214th Street in Williamsbridge, owned by Ariel Benlulu, has experienced recurring maintenance challenges since at least 2021, with the most significant issues occurring in 2022. During that year, multiple complaints were filed regarding heat and hot water outages affecting the entire building, pest infestations (including roaches and mice), plumbing problems, and issues with windows, floors, and stairs. While some of these issues were resolved promptly, others were closed due to lack of access for inspections.

Notably, Apartment 2F received several citations in 2022 for various violations including defective smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, a roach infestation, and poor wall conditions, though most of these were certified as resolved by July 2022. The building's maintenance history shows persistent challenges with both heating systems and pest control, though recent records from 2023 and 2024 indicate some improvements. The most recent rodent inspections have been mixed, with a failed result in January 2023, a failed inspection in November 2022, and a passing inspection in August 2022.

The property has maintained a consistent record of filing bedbug reports showing zero infestations from 2022 through 2025. As of the latest bedbug report filing in June 2025, there have been no reported infestations or re-infestations. The building has also had multiple annual bedbug reports filed consistently since 2020, showing compliance with this specific requirement. The most recent Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2023 included a bedbug reporting requirement, though previous violations from 2022 relating to safety equipment and apartment conditions had been addressed and closed.
