367 East 48th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11203

The 6-unit, 3-story apartment building at 367 East 48th Street in East Flatbush, owned by Mehrdad Gamzehlatova, has experienced persistent maintenance issues since 2020, with particular concerns about heat and pest problems. Most recently, in March 2025, there were complaints about lack of heat/hot water affecting the entire building, which HPD was unable to verify access to during inspection. In 2022, the building faced similar heat/hot water complaints, along with pest-related issues that also could not be inspected due to access problems.

While a 2020 pest complaint was investigated without violations, records show recurring pest-related concerns. The building has open violations from 2021-2024 regarding failure to file annual bedbug reports as required by Housing Maintenance Code. More recently, in 2024, a Department of Buildings violation was issued for unauthorized work involving the replacement of a garage door with brick wall and residential door, with an active penalty of $1,250.

The building has a history of access issues during inspections, notably for heat/hot water and pest-related complaints, suggesting potential challenges with building access protocols. While there were several violations documented in 2018 related to the public hall and safety issues (e.g., exposed electrical wires, broken fire retardant ceiling), these were resolved through repairs and proper remediation. A rodent inspection in June 2022 resulted in a failed initial inspection, though it passed a subsequent compliance inspection later that month. The building's bedbug reporting through November 2024 indicates no current or previously infested units for the reporting period, suggesting improved conditions in this regard.
