724 Lafayette Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11221

The three-story, four-unit building at 724 Lafayette Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, currently owned by Prime Nadlan LLC, has experienced several significant maintenance and regulatory events since 2018. Notably, there are two open Housing Maintenance Code violations from January 2022 concerning illegal plumbing fixtures in the basement, including water closets, wash basins, and bathing facilities, which have been documented as illegally converted living spaces.

The building has undergone multiple permit issuances between 2018 and 2020 for various construction and renovation work, with permits for electrical, plumbing, and other work types all marked as issued. The property has maintained a generally positive record in terms of rodent control, with consistent passing inspections from 2020 through mid-2025, though a rat sighting complaint was filed in June 2025 that resulted in a Department of Health inspection finding no violations.

While there have been several complaints filed with the Department of Buildings regarding potential illegal conversions, work without permits, construction work issues, and structural concerns, inspections typically found no violations warranting action. The building's most recent health and safety records indicate regular rodent inspections continue to show compliance, with the most recent entries from May, July, and November 2025 also passing these inspections. The property's history suggests ongoing maintenance and regulatory oversight, particularly regarding basement conversion issues, while demonstrating compliance with health requirements through regular inspections.
