Augrented Insights Report for 841 Dekalb Avenue

841 Dekalb Avenue is a 5-story, 8-unit residential building constructed in 1931 and currently owned by Reda 841 Dekalb Llc. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most recent concerns focusing on ventilation systems (2024) and an active roof drainage problem (active ECB violation since 2019 with a $3,125 penalty). In March 2023, multiple violations were documented in Apartment 4R, including issues with mold, water leaks (slow leak and damp spot), ceiling problems, flooring defects, and the need for paint/plaster repairs.

These violations appear to have been addressed, as evidenced by their closed status. The building has undergone several inspections and received varying results, with the most recent rodent inspections in 2025 showing rat activity, though previous inspections typically passed. Historical maintenance patterns show recurring water-related issues, with several 2021 complaints indicating problems with leaking conditions.

A bedbug report filed in 2024 covering the period from 2022 showed zero infestations. While many past violations have been closed, including those from 2021 and 2023, there remain some open issues such as the ventilation system complaint from 2024 and the longstanding roof drainage concern. The building's maintenance history reflects ongoing challenges with water management, ventilation, and interior maintenance, particularly affecting the fourth-floor unit.
