143 Patchen Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

143 Patchen Avenue is a 2-family, 2-story residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. The property was built in 1899 and is currently owned by Mair Jankovits. The building has encountered several maintenance issues over recent years, most notably a water leak in 2021 that required HPD intervention and resulted in violations related to ceiling conditions in Apartment 3. This later necessitated roof repairs to address leakage problems, with violations certified as corrected in early 2024.

The building experienced multiple sanitary concerns in 2019, including issues with garbage/recycling storage and pest infestations, though inspections resulted in no violations being issued. Between 2019-2021, there were inspections for rodent conditions, with varying results including some failures to meet compliance in 2019. The property's maintenance history shows some ongoing challenges with both rodent and bedbug management, though recent reports indicate improvements. Notably, there has been no bedbug infestation reported in any unit for the past three reporting periods (2021-2025).

However, the most recent rodent inspection conducted in June 2025 indicated rat activity, marking a significant concern regarding current pest management. Prior to this, the building had passed all rodent inspections from 2022-2024, though there were non-compliance issues noted in 2019. The building's 311 complaint history shows a pattern of various maintenance issues, including mailbox problems (2019) and multiple unsanitary condition reports, though most complaints have been resolved without violation issuance. The property has a mix of passed and failed inspections over the years, particularly regarding rodent conditions, but has shown some improvement in recent years with regards to bedbug management specifically.
