152 Saratoga Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11233

The two-family residential building at 152 Saratoga Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Shlome Landau and constructed in 1995, has experienced several maintenance challenges and regulatory scrutiny over the past several years. Recent inspections, including the most recent in June 2025, have consistently shown that the building passes rodent inspections, with no violations found.

However, the property has faced recurring issues with heat, hot water, and electrical systems, particularly in January 2022 when multiple emergency complaints were filed regarding power outages and lack of lighting throughout the entire building, as well as heat and hot water problems. Inspection access was denied in some cases during these incidents, complicating resolution efforts. The building has been the subject of multiple complaints regarding potential illegal activities, including illegal hotel rooms and conversions, between 2018 and 2021, though inspections generally either found no violations or could not gain access to verify the conditions.

While the property has maintained a consistent record of passing rodent inspections, with the most recent issues being resolved through inspection, the repeated nature of electrical and heating system complaints suggests these systems may require ongoing monitoring. Notably, the building has not reported any bedbug infestations in the past three reporting periods, with all records indicating zero infested dwelling units. The most significant recent activity includes two construction-related complaints in 2023 and 2025, though inspections found no violations in either case.
