3403 Bruner Avenue, Bronx, NY 10469

The two-family house at 3403 Bruner Avenue in Eastchester, owned by Yaron Zohar, has experienced multiple significant issues since its construction in 2004. Most recently, in May 2023, the Department of Health found rodent activity on the property, with follow-up compliance inspections in July confirming continued rat presence. This was preceded by a garbage/recycling storage complaint in January 2023 that resulted in verified violations, though these were later corrected according to HPD records.

The summer of 2022 was particularly problematic, with multiple violations recorded across various categories including unsanitary conditions (mold and pest infestations), door/window issues (frames, panes, and overall door problems), and appliance concerns (refrigerator). During government inspections in June 2022, several violations were documented in Apartment 1, including mold issues in the bathroom, insect infestations throughout the apartment, and multiple door/window problems requiring attention. The building's maintenance history shows some mechanical and structural concerns, including a non-functional flushing apparatus in the first-floor bathroom (violation status still open as of June 2022) and various door and window maintenance needs.

While there have been no bedbug infestations reported in the past five years (2020-2024), the most pressing ongoing concern appears to be the rodent problem, with inspections in both May and July 2023 confirming rat activity. Notably, the building was constructed in 2004 and has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with all annual reports showing zero infested units and no eradication or re-infestation cases. The most recent Department of Buildings complaint from 2019 regarding a vacant building issue yielded no violations upon inspection.
