365 Van Brunt Street, Brooklyn, NY 11231

This three-story, 2-family residential building at 365 Van Brunt Street in Red Hook, owned by Sam Selmani, has experienced several significant maintenance issues since 2021. Most notably, there are ongoing mold and wall repair concerns, with three separate complaints recorded in late 2024, all of which HPD was unable to properly inspect.

Between May and June 2021, the building faced multiple pest-related issues, resulting in at least one violation being issued (on May 19, 2021), with inspections finding rodent activity during April and with additional violations documented in June. The building also experienced electrical problems in May 2021, specifically regarding inadequate lighting in public areas, though these were subsequently addressed. Several maintenance violations from 2021 remain open as of the latest available data.

These include issues with broken plaster surfaces and paint uniformity on the south wall of the public stair area, electrical service deficiencies to ceiling fixtures on the second story, and a rat infestation in the first story public hall. The building underwent multiple inspections in May 2021 regarding structural stability concerns, with no violations found at the time of inspection. While the property has had various maintenance issues, it's worth noting that during 2021 inspections, no violations were found for some reported problems, including several pest complaints in June 2021, and there have been no reported violations or major complaints for the year 2023 up to October 2023.
