206 Lefferts Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238

206 Lefferts Place is a three-story, single-unit residential building located in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. Owned by Derrick Reaves and constructed in 1899, this Class B building has experienced recurring compliance issues with the Housing Maintenance Code (HMC) regarding bedbug reporting requirements over the past four years.

Specifically, from 2021 through 2024, the building received Class A violations for failing to file the required annual bedbug reports, with these violations remaining open as of April 2024. In contrast, the building has demonstrated consistent compliance with rodent inspections, passing all but one of the nine inspections conducted between 2020 and 2025. Notably, there was one instance of rat activity recorded in April 2023, though subsequent rodent inspections in 2023 and 2024 returned passing results.

The building's inspection history reveals a generally positive record in maintaining rodent control measures, with inspections occurring regularly and consistently passing in the most recent evaluations conducted in 2024 and 2025. However, the repeated bedbug reporting violations represent the most significant area of concern, given their potential impact on resident comfort and safety. While the building's age and conversion status (HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS B) are standard for the neighborhood, the persistent bedbug reporting noncompliance suggests an ongoing administrative oversight that has spanned multiple years and requires attention to achieve proper regulatory compliance.
