Augrented Insights Report for 162 Franklin Avenue

Located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, 162 Franklin Avenue is a three-story, six-unit New Law Tenement building constructed in 1905 and currently owned by Eva Leal. The property has experienced recurring maintenance issues throughout 2025, with multiple emergency complaints regarding electrical systems, plumbing, and general maintenance. Notably, there are open violations from 2024 in two apartments (3R and 3L) related to multiple maintenance issues including bathroom tiles, door repairs, interior painting, and a documented roach infestation in apartment 3L.

The building has also generated several concerning maintenance requests, including multiple reports of water leaks and deteriorating flooring conditions in June 2025, and various electrical and plumbing issues throughout the year. The building's history shows persistent maintenance challenges, particularly in recent years. Between 2019-2025, there were multiple complaints and violations regarding gas infrastructure, electrical systems, and maintenance issues.

The property has multiple active DOB violations as of 2024 related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspections for several years. In terms of pest management, while recent rodent inspections have passed, historical records from 2021-2023 show periods of rat activity requiring bait application. A bedbug report filed in 2022 indicated zero infested units, though the reporting period coincided with earlier rodent issues. The building's management history shows a pattern of maintenance violations and required repairs, particularly affecting the third floor (apartments 3R and 3L), with many complaints resulting in issued violations that required correction within specified timeframes.
