Augrented Insights Report for 978 Kent Avenue

978 Kent Avenue is a 6-story, 11-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, constructed in 2021 and currently owned by Maier Jankovits. The building's maintenance record reveals several concerning patterns, particularly regarding heat and rodent issues. Most recently, in early 2025, there were door-related complaints, and in 2024, the building experienced heating and hot water system problems affecting Unit 1B, which led to Class C violations.

The building has faced ongoing challenges with rodent management, with multiple reports between 2023-2024 showing rat activity, though the most recent June 2025 inspection showed a passing result. Emergency complaints from 2023 included issues with doors/windows and water supply, all of which were reportedly corrected according to HPD follow-up inspections. The building's construction and initial occupancy period (2020-2021) was marked by multiple safety and compliance concerns, including violations related to pedestrian protection and inadequate housekeeping at the job site, though these were subsequently resolved.

A bedbug inspection report filed in 2025 shows no infestations during the 2023-2024 period, maintaining a record of zero infested units since the building's opening. The property has undergone several periodic rodent inspections, with varying results from 2022-2025, indicating some ongoing challenges with pest management despite occasional passing inspections. The building's maintenance history demonstrates regular reporting and inspection processes, with most complaints being addressed through official channels, though some recurring issues suggest ongoing challenges with building systems and pest control.
