248 East 48th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The two-family house at 248 East 48th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Nigel King, has experienced several notable maintenance issues over the past few years. Most recently, in late 2024, there were complaints regarding heating issues, with an HPD inspection finding no violations, though another heat-related complaint from April 2024 was initially closed due to lack of access.

The building faced multiple system-related problems in April 2024, including plumbing issues with sinks (both emergency and non-emergency complaints), electrical problems with lighting (both emergency and non-emergency), and floor maintenance concerns. Some of these violations were issued during inspections, while others required multiple complaints for proper access and evaluation. The building's history shows ongoing concerns with basic services, particularly during 2024, with multiple instances of heating, plumbing, and electrical issues.

An active illegal conversion complaint was filed in December 2024, though inspectors were initially denied access. Prior to these issues, there was a permit-related complaint in September 2020 which was closed with no violations found during inspection. While many of the 2024 complaints were resolved, with HPD inspections conducted, the pattern of maintenance issues suggests recurring challenges with building systems and infrastructure.
