Augrented Insights Report for 499 Wyona Street

The two-story, three-unit building at 499 Wyona Street in East New York, managed by owner Joel Retek, has experienced multiple maintenance and compliance issues over recent years. As of 2025, there have been numerous uninspected complaints filed through 311 and HPD regarding various maintenance issues including door frame problems, water leaks, flooring concerns, wall issues, pests, and electrical problems - all closed due to lack of access for inspection.

Notably, apartment 2R has been the focus of several violations, particularly between 2024-2025, with documented infestations of mice and roaches, plumbing issues with the toilet, and problems with kitchen flooring and lighting. The building has a history of unauthorized unit concerns, with multiple "illegal conversion" complaints filed between 2019-2023, though inspections were unable to gain access to verify these conditions. Building systems and maintenance have been a consistent challenge, as evidenced by multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints and violations, including a plumbing violation issued in late 2024.

More recently, between late 2024 and 2025, there were multiple trouble reports regarding floor and wall conditions, though many of these complaints were closed due to lack of access for inspection. While bedbug reports from 2021-2025 show no documented infestations or eradications, and the most recent rodent inspection in June 2024 passed, earlier inspections in 2022 had documented rat activity, highlighting ongoing pest management challenges. The building's record includes several Department of Buildings Environmental Control Board violations from 2021 regarding failure to comply with previous orders, though these were ultimately resolved with no penalties.
