Augrented Insights Report for 753 Lexington Avenue

The two-story, 10-unit building at 753 Lexington Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Moshe Deutsch, has experienced persistent maintenance challenges since at least 2020. Recent issues include a water leak with heavy flow reported in October 2024, which an HPD inspector could not access to investigate, and multiple rodent activity reports throughout 2024-2025, with the most recent inspection in February 2025 resulting in a passing grade. The building has a significant history of water-related problems, with at least seven separate water leak complaints between 2022 and 2024, including heavy and slow leaks. Safety concerns were documented in 2022-2023, including violations related to smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors in Apartment 2B.

The property has undergone several inspections and received various violations that have since been addressed. In 2022-2023, violations included unsanitary conditions involving sewage in Apartment 1B's bathroom and pest infestations. Multiple housing maintenance code violations were issued, including concerning door hardware, certificate of inspection placement, and safety equipment. A potential illegal conversion complaint from 2020 was recorded but resulted in access denial for inspection. While the building experienced some bedbug issues in 2022 (two units affected), recent filings in 2023-2024 show no current infestations.

The property has shown mixed compliance with housing regulations, with various violations being addressed and certified as corrected, including door repairs and safety equipment installation. The rodent control measures implemented in 2024 indicate ongoing management efforts to address pest control issues, as evidenced by multiple bait applications and inspections throughout 2024. The most recent rodent inspections in 2025 suggest some improvement in pest conditions, though previous inspections in 2024 consistently indicated rat activity. The building's maintenance history suggests ongoing challenges with water management, safety equipment maintenance, and pest control, while recent inspections indicate some progress in addressing these issues. The most pressing current concerns based on available data are the water leak issues reported in late 2024 and the building's historical pattern of water-related complaints.
