Augrented Insights Report for 343 Vernon Avenue

The three-story, 3-unit residential building at 343 Vernon Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Joel Stauber, has experienced significant issues in recent years, particularly in 2024-2025. The property has faced multiple complaints and violations related to unauthorized occupancy, with Environmental Control Board violations in December 2024 citing illegal occupancy with 3 or more additional dwelling units and offering/using/ converting the premises for non-permanent residential purposes, resulting in substantial penalties totaling $245,000. There have also been serious safety concerns, including violations for failing to maintain proper means of egress, lack of required sprinkler systems, and inadequate fire alarm systems for transient use.

Recent maintenance issues include heat/hot water complaints in November 2024 and unsanitary conditions related to garbage/recycling storage. The building has undergone multiple inspections and received several violation notices between 2021-2024 regarding bedbug reporting compliance, with the most recent report (2024-2025) showing no infestations. Recent rodent activity has been documented through multiple inspections in 2024-2025, with regular bait application and compliance checks showing persistent rat activity.

The property has also faced structural maintenance issues, including problems with self-closing doors and glass panes at the vestibule door, resulting in violation notices in November 2024. While some complaints have been resolved through inspections where no violations were found, the building remains subject to ongoing monitoring due to recurring issues, particularly with illegal occupancy and pest control. The most notable recent issues include multiple rat activity inspections in 2024-2025, unauthorized occupancy violations with significant penalties, and ongoing maintenance concerns. The building's history shows a pattern of compliance challenges, particularly regarding occupancy regulations and pest management, requiring regular intervention from city agencies over the past several years.
