165 Jefferson Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11216

The three-unit, three-story residential building at 165 Jefferson Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Chakakhan Reed, was constructed in 2004 and has maintained a generally positive record over the past several years. The building has demonstrated consistent compliance with rodent control measures, passing all nine inspections from 2020 through 2025, including three consecutive inspections in 2024-2025.

While the property experienced four consecutive Housing Maintenance Code violations between 2021 and 2024 related to bedbug report filing requirements, these violations appear to have been administrative in nature rather than indicating active infestations. Indeed, the bedbug reporting history shows a clean record for the past three years (2022-2025), with the most recent report confirming zero infested units and three eradicated units as of May 2025. The building's maintenance record shows diligent attention to pest control issues, with the most recent bedbug report filed on May 2, 2025, documenting compliance with reporting requirements.

The property has undergone regular inspections and demonstrated effective pest management practices, as evidenced by the absence of reported infestations in recent years. A building permit for exterior work (job number 340650584) was issued in December 2018, suggesting proactive maintenance of the building's structure. While the historical violations related to bedbug reporting requirements are noteworthy, they seem to have been resolved, with no recent violations on record since the building began maintaining accurate bedbug documentation in 2022.
