4001 De Reimer Avenue, Bronx, NY 10466

This three-story, three-unit residential building at 4001 De Reimer Avenue in Edenwald, owned by Javier Monroy, was constructed in 2001 and has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, in August 2024, multiple violations were documented following inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), including problems with lighting, flooring, doors, and plumbing.

The second-floor apartment (Apt 2) was particularly affected, with documented issues including defective ceiling light fixtures in the bathroom, an illegal sliding deadbolt on the entrance door, problems with wood floor repairs, malfunctioning closet doors, leaky kitchen sink faucets, and visible mold conditions in the second bathroom. Earlier in 2024, there were also concerning heat and hot water issues affecting the entire building, with inspections revealing inadequate conditions in January. The building's recent history shows a pattern of maintenance challenges, though there have been no documented bedbug infestations in the past three years (2022-2025).

While the property has undergone various repairs and addressed multiple violations (most recently certified on October 10, 2024), the persistence of recurring issues, particularly in Apt 2, suggests ongoing maintenance needs. The building's history also includes rodent inspections in 2018, during which rat activity was confirmed and bait was applied, though no such issues have been reported more recently. The property has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, with no infestations reported since 2022.
