Augrented Insights Report for 213 Bedford Avenue

213 Bedford Avenue is a 4-story, 8-unit residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by John Senko. The property has experienced several maintenance issues over the past five years, with the most pressing concerns being structural. The building is currently facing an active complaint from June 2025 regarding a bulging/cracked wall, echoing previous structural violations documented in 2021 that noted cracks at various locations on the building's exterior. Despite these concerns, recent bedbug reports from 2023-2024 show no infestation problems, maintaining a clean record in this category since 2019.

The building's maintenance history reveals recurring issues with water and pest problems, though many of these complaints were resolved or closed without direct violations being documented. Notable events include a heavy water leak complaint in 2020 and multiple tenant safety inspections in 2021, all of which were conducted but did not result in major findings. The property has undergone several regulatory inspections, including successful rodent inspections in 2019 and 2022, though there was an access issue during a 2022 health inspection. While there have been multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints regarding various issues such as water damage and wall conditions, many were either resolved or closed without direct violation status.

Recent documentation shows the building has maintained compliance with bedbug reporting requirements from 2019 through 2024, with no reported infestations during this period. The property has also been subject to multiple Environmental Control Board violations between 2020 and 2021 regarding wall maintenance, with penalties imposed but later resolved. Two recent DOB violations from 2023 regarding external pressure inspection filing were dismissed. While the building has shown some persistent maintenance issues over the years, particularly regarding its exterior walls, the recent lack of bedbug infestations and successful rodent inspections suggests some basic maintenance requirements are being met.
