Augrented Insights Report for 733 Dekalb Avenue

733 Dekalb Avenue is a 3-story, 5-unit residential building constructed in 1931 in Bedford-Stuyvesant, currently owned by Austen Rabbie. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past three years, with the most recent complaints in 2025 involving multiple water leaks and window frame problems, all of which were inspected by HPD with no violations issued. Significant past issues include a mold violation in 2023 (Apartment 2R), heating problems (both apartment-specific and building-wide), and various plumbing and sanitary conditions. The building has a history of rodent activity, with most recent rodent inspections showing rat activity in 2023-2024, though the April 2025 inspection passed.

Safety concerns were raised in 2021 when violations were issued regarding improper furnace venting and gas line installation in the basement, though these were resolved with penalties totaling $2,500. The building's record also shows consistent compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 to 2023, with no infested or re-infested units reported. Multiple HPD complaints between 2022-2023 were addressed, including issues with flooring, stairs, walls, and various plumbing concerns, most of which were resolved through inspection and correction verification. While recent maintenance actions suggest the owner is responding to issues, the frequency and variety of past violations indicate ongoing building maintenance challenges.

The property's environmental control board violations from 2021 regarding furnace installation were resolved, and historical violations related to bedbug reporting and various safety requirements have been addressed. The building has maintained regular bedbug reporting compliance since 2019, consistently showing zero infested units. While recent rodent inspections have passed, there have been multiple instances of rat activity in 2022-2024, with the most recent inspection showing no current activity. The property has experienced recurring water-related issues as evidenced by multiple HPD complaints regarding leaks and damp spots in 2025, though no violations were issued following inspections.
