Augrented Insights Report for 1519 Dekalb Avenue

1519 Dekalb Avenue is a 3-story, 6-unit old law tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Noam Amos. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues over recent years, particularly concerning water damage, unsanitary conditions, and pest infestations. Most notably, there is an active violation from March 2024 regarding self-closing doors in apartment 3L, along with several open violations from October 2023 in apartment 1R related to missing safety equipment (smoke and carbon monoxide detectors) and unauthorized alterations to the building structure.

The building has a documented history of bedbug infestations, with all units undergoing eradication treatment for multiple years between 2019-2024, though there are concerns about re-infestation patterns. Recent health and safety inspections reveal ongoing challenges with sanitation and maintenance. In 2025, a water leak complaint was filed but could not be inspected due to access issues.

In late 2024, multiple complaints regarding plumbing, appliances, flooring, plaster, and mold were investigated, though no violations were found. The building has experienced recurring rodent issues, with inspections showing varying results between 2022-2025, including some failed inspections for rat activity. The property has also faced multiple pest-related complaints, particularly concerning an apparent pest infestation in 2024 that required inspection, though no violations were issued. While some maintenance issues have been addressed, as evidenced by completed work under the Housing Maintenance Code, numerous open violations and recurring infestations suggest ongoing management challenges within the building.
