Augrented Insights Report for 131 Sterling Street

The 16-unit, 4-story New Law Tenement building at 131 Sterling Street in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, currently owned by Kino Vitet, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past few years, particularly regarding heating systems and general apartment conditions. Most notably, there have been multiple heat and hot water complaints documented in 2023 and 2024, including a recent emergency complaint in November 2024.

The property has also faced various plumbing issues, with multiple complaints regarding bathtubs, showers, and radiators between 2023-2024, several of which inspectors were unable to access for verification. In early 2024, substantial violations were documented in apartment 4D, including pest infestations (roaches and mice), multiple defective fixtures and appliances, and issues with flooring and ceilings, though records indicate these violations were subsequently certified as corrected between April 2024 and September 2024.

The building's maintenance history also shows some concerns about exterior conditions, with a 2021 complaint regarding building stability and multiple ECB violations related to facade issues and site cleanliness, though these were resolved with penalties paid. Despite these challenges, it's worth noting that the building has consistently passed rodent inspections since 2011, and bedbug reports from recent years (2021-2025) show no infestation cases. The property has experienced similar heating and maintenance issues over multiple years, as evidenced by recurring complaints and violations, suggesting ongoing challenges with building systems and maintenance responsiveness.
