Augrented Insights Report for 5214 Church Avenue

The three-story, five-unit tenement building at 5214 Church Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Elliot Frankel and constructed in 1931, has experienced several recurring maintenance issues over the past five years. Most notably, there has been an ongoing pattern of heat and hot water complaints, with multiple incidents reported between 2019 and 2020, affecting various units including at least one entire building-wide outage.

The building has also faced various other maintenance challenges, including a heavy water leak in early 2020, multiple rodent-related complaints between 2019 and 2021, and various plumbing and sanitation issues. Several emergency violations were recorded in late 2021, including problems with doors, windows, and gutter systems, all of which were subsequently closed.

More recently, as of 2023, there are active violations related to the failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2018, 2019, and 2020, and one from 2017 regarding boiler inspection. The building also had two complaints about illegal conversions in 2020 and 2021, though inspectors were unable to gain access. However, on a positive note, the property has shown improvement in pest management, with the past four annual bedbug reports (2021-2024) indicating zero infested units, and a successful rodent inspection in 2022 resulted in a passing grade.
