213 Milford Street, Brooklyn, NY 11208

213 Milford Street is a two-family residential building located in East New York, consisting of two stories and built in 1930, currently owned by Harun Rashid. The property has experienced multiple concerning issues over the past several years, with the most recent incident occurring in May 2022 involving unsanitary mold conditions that required inspection and resulted in violations from the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD).

Prior to this, there was a notable cluster of rodent-related complaints in 2020, with several reports of rat sightings and conditions attracting rodents to the property, though inspections did not consistently reveal violations. The building has also faced significant maintenance challenges in 2019, including a sewage odor complaint that could not be investigated due to communication issues, mold problems that HPD could not access for inspection, and a heat/hot water emergency complaint where inspectors were unable to gain access to verify the conditions. The property's documented issues suggest recurring concerns with both sanitation and basic building maintenance, particularly between 2019 and 2022.

While some complaints were resolved or closed without violations being found, the pattern of complaints indicates potential ongoing maintenance challenges. Notably, access issues during multiple inspections (for mold, heat/hot water, and sewage concerns) may suggest difficulties with resident cooperation during government inspections. The most recent recorded violation from May 2022 regarding mold conditions represents the building's most current documented issue, with no further complaints recorded through October 2023.
