Augrented Insights Report for 548 St Marks Avenue

The two-family house at 548 St Marks Avenue in Crown Heights, owned by Eitan Itah, has experienced persistent maintenance issues since 2020, with the most recent problems involving mold in January 2025 and previous occurrences in April 2024. The building has a documented history of various maintenance challenges, including heat and hot water issues (most recently in December 2023), water leaks, and multiple sanitary concerns involving sewage, particularly during late 2020.

Notably, violations were issued in December 2020 related to mold in the boiler room and other maintenance issues in basement Apartment 1, including plumbing, water leaks, and rodent infestation concerns. The property has faced significant regulatory scrutiny regarding unauthorized use, with Department of Buildings violations from 2018 citing illegal transient use of the upper duplex apartment, lack of proper fire safety systems, and insufficient means of egress, resulting in resolved penalties totaling $7,250.

While some historical violations have been closed, as of April 2025, there continue to be active concerns regarding the building's habitability, including an open Class C violation from 2020 related to bathroom obstructions. The building's rodent inspection history shows fluctuating results, with several instances of rat activity recorded between 2023 and 2024, though a recent April 2025 inspection resulted in a passing grade.
