125 Eldert Street, Brooklyn, NY 11207

125 Eldert Street is a three-story, three-unit residential building owned by Yair Yaish, constructed in 2004 in Bushwick. The property has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water supply, particularly evident in early 2025 with multiple emergency complaints and previous similar incidents throughout 2023-2024. A pattern of maintenance challenges is apparent, with significant concerns in Unit 2, including unsanitary conditions with reports of pests (roaches and mice), water leaks, and various safety violations documented in 2023.

These included problems with smoke detectors, window guards, and multiple issues requiring repairs to plaster surfaces and bathroom ceilings. The building's systems have shown persistent deficiencies, with violations related to gas supply and hot water infrastructure in mid-2023, though some of these were later marked as corrected. The property has undergone several inspections and received various violations that are worth noting. In 2020, there was an active ECB violation related to unpermitted boiler installation work with a penalty of $1,250.

A series of rodent inspections from 2019 to 2025 show alternating compliance results, with some failures for "Other Reasons" in 2024. The building has maintained a consistent bedbug reporting history from 2019-2025, with no documented infestations during these periods. While the most recent 2025 rodent inspection passed, previous years showed varying results, suggesting sporadic pest management challenges. The records indicate ongoing maintenance needs, particularly regarding heating systems and general apartment upkeep, with multiple violations remaining open as of 2023-related to Unit 2 that include pest infestations, water damage, and various maintenance issues requiring attention.
