Augrented Insights Report for 65 Ocean Avenue

65 Ocean Avenue is a 6-story, 41-unit residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Margaret Brunn, with significant maintenance and tenant-related issues documented between 2019 and 2025. The building has experienced recurring problems with water leaks, most recently a heavy flow incident in June 2025, and frequent issues with appliance maintenance, particularly electric/gas ranges, with multiple complaints and violations in 2025 alone. Notable violations from 2024 include an active situation in apartment 6F involving roach infestation, defective refrigerator seals, leaky faucets, bathroom mold, and various issues with bathroom fixtures and cabinets.

The building's maintenance history shows persistent rodent activity, with inspections in 2025 confirming rat presence, and an illegal animal sale investigation in May 2025.
