Augrented Insights Report for 820 Dekalb Avenue

820 Dekalb Avenue is a 4-story, 10-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Yidel Hirsch and constructed in 2015. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over its lifespan, with the most notable period of concern occurring in August-September 2018, when multiple complaints regarding mold and unsanitary conditions were filed, though inspections by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) resulted in no violations being issued.

During this same period, the building received several Class A violations related to building safety and maintenance requirements, including failures to properly post required notices and documentation in common areas, though these were subsequently resolved, with certification now showing compliance as of July 2024. A particularly serious issue emerged in August 2018 regarding the illegal use of a cellar space for living purposes, which resulted in a $3,125 penalty that has since been resolved. Recent records from 2022 to 2025 indicate improved conditions regarding both bedbug and pest control, with the property submitting annual bedbug reports showing zero infestations or eradications from 2021 through 2025.

However, there have been ongoing rodent control challenges, with multiple inspections in late 2023 and 2024 showing rat activity, though recent inspections in 2025 (April and May) documented similar conditions. The building's most recent 311 complaint was filed in October 2019 regarding indoor air quality and ventilation, but no violations or major issues appear to have persisted since then. While the building has demonstrated improved compliance with various housing maintenance codes and safety requirements in recent years, the recurring rodent activity noted in 2025 inspection reports suggests ongoing pest management challenges.
