1773 Nostrand Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The 2-family residential building at 1773 Nostrand Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by David Koptiev, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years. Most notably, in December 2020, there were two separate emergency complaints regarding lack of heat and hot water, though Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access to inspect the apartments.

The building has also faced regulatory challenges, including an active violation from June 2023 for failure to file the 2018 external low pressure inspection, and previously, a violation in November 2019 for not filing the 2017 boiler inspection report, which resulted in a $1,000 penalty despite being dismissed. Recent inspections indicate ongoing pest management concerns.

The property has undergone regular rodent control measures, with multiple bait applications recorded between July 2024 and January 2025, though a compliance inspection in July 2024 showed passing results. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbugs, with no reported infestations in the last three monitoring periods from 2024 to 2025. The three-story, 1933-built property continues to operate as a two-family house, with its most pressing issues revolving around the need for improved building system maintenance and regular compliance with inspection requirements.
