Augrented Insights Report for 3939 Barnes Avenue

The 32-unit, 4-story residential building at 3939 Barnes Avenue in Wakefield, owned by Jeff Cohen, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues since 2023. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints affecting both entire building and individual apartments between September and November 2024, with at least three of these classified as emergencies. The building has also faced persistent pest problems, with documented infestations in August and February 2025, and violations issued in September 2024 related to a roach infestation in apartment 2D.

Additional maintenance concerns have included issues with flooring (both in common areas and individual apartments), water leaks, and problems with ceiling paint and plaster. The property has a history of safety compliance issues, including recent violations regarding energy efficiency reporting requirements. Department of Buildings records show past concerns about emergency egress and roof access security, with active violations remaining as of 2023 related to energy benchmarking requirements.

While rodent inspections in 2024 generally passed, there have been periodic inspections showing non-compliance in previous years (most notably in 2018). The building's management has demonstrated responsiveness to most HPD complaints, with many issues being resolved or closed after inspection, though some violations from 2024 remain open pending correction. The property has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations in recent years, with no reported cases between 2019 and 2024.
