Augrented Insights Report for 1549 Dekalb Avenue

1549 Dekalb Avenue is a 4-story, 6-unit New Law tenement building constructed in 1931, currently owned by Vanessa Soria. The building has experienced persistent maintenance issues over the past few years, with recurring problems including water leaks, electrical problems, and pest infestations. Most notably, there have been multiple water leak complaints in 2024 alone, including both slow and heavy flow issues, and the building has faced ongoing rodent control challenges with multiple inspections showing rat activity between 2023 and 2025.

The property has also had multiple housing maintenance violations related to pest infestations, particularly in Apartment 2L, which was cited for both roach and mouse infestations in 2024. The building's maintenance history shows significant recent activity, with several emergency complaints in 2024 including issues with no lighting, unsanitary conditions, and water leaks. There have been multiple violations related to work performed without proper permits, particularly concerning commercial space usage and building modifications, with the most recent being a July 2024 violation regarding unpermitted flower shop setup with electrical connections.

The property has demonstrated some level of compliance with bedbug reporting requirements, showing no recorded infestations since 2020. Recent inspections in 2025 have indicated ongoing rodent issues, with the most recent inspection failing for various reasons. While some housing maintenance violations have been resolved, including issues with plastered surfaces and various infrastructure problems, the building continues to have active violations related to external low-pressure inspection requirements as of April 2023.
