841 Kent Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11205

841 Kent Avenue is a four-story, eight-unit old law tenement building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by 841 Kent Enterprise LLC and constructed in 1905. The building has experienced recurring pest control and maintenance challenges over recent years, though there appears to be recent improvement. Most notably, the property has consistently filed bedbug reports from 2019 through 2025 showing zero infested units during the most recent reporting period of 2023-2024, which indicates successful pest management in this regard.

The building's rodent inspection history shows a mix of results, with the most recent July 2024 inspection passing, following previous rat activity findings in 2022. Between 2010-2011, the building underwent extensive rodent control measures with multiple bait applications recorded. The building's history includes three notable Department of Buildings complaints between 2020-2025, though none resulted in violations upon inspection.

These complaints were related to potentially dangerous debris in 2025, electrical wiring concerns in 2020, and suspected illegal hotel rooms in 2020. Additionally, the property has faced two housing maintenance code violations regarding bedbug reporting requirements in 2021 and 2022, though these violations were subsequently closed. The building's maintenance record suggests ongoing attention to pest management and general building upkeep, with significant improvements in bedbug reporting compliance and rodent control noted in recent years.
