980 Sutter Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11208

980 Sutter Avenue is a two-family, two-story residential building in East New York, owned by Amnon Touaf and constructed in 1925. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most concerning period being in May 2018 when Apartment 3 reported multiple serious problems that were subsequently documented as Housing Maintenance Code Violations.

These included inadequate electric service, lack of hot water, gas supply issues to the kitchen range stove, and a leaking roof affecting the entrance area. The building also suffered a power outage incident in July 2018, though this was investigated by HPD with no violations issued. More recent records show some continuing maintenance issues, including a February 2020 violation regarding broken or defective paving in the rear yard, which was certified as corrected.

Importantly, the building has demonstrated good pest control management, with the most recent bedbug reports (2022-2024) showing zero infested units, and previous rodent inspections show improvement over time, with the most recent compliance check not specifying any active violations. The property has maintained a consistent record of addressing violations once cited, as evidenced by the "Closed" status of most listed issues. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing issues promptly once they are officially documented, though there have been recurring concerns about basic utilities and infrastructure, particularly affecting the third-floor apartment.
