Augrented Insights Report for 518 Flatbush Avenue

The 8-unit, 4-story Old Law Tenement building at 518 Flatbush Avenue in Prospect-Lefferts Gardens, owned by Jody Rudin, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past few years. Most notably, the building has had recurring problems with mold and water-related issues, including a confirmed mold violation in 2021 (Apartment 3A) and multiple complaints about unsanitary conditions involving sewage and slow water leaks.

The building's most recent violations from 2022 involve persistent maintenance issues in Apartment 4D, including problems with bathroom mold, defective caulking, and security-related concerns regarding the entrance door lock. The building has also faced infrastructure challenges, with building-wide inspection violations in 2022 regarding fire stair doors and gas leak procedure postings. In terms of pest-related issues, there was a confirmed rodent infestation in 2019, with previous rat activity documented in 2017, though more recent inspections have shown compliance passing status.

The building's heating system had a complaint in early 2020 regarding inadequate heat/hot water, though this was resolved without violations. Despite these ongoing maintenance challenges, it's worth noting that the building has maintained an active bedbug reporting record for the past three years (2023-2024) showing no infested units, and the property passed its 2023-2024 bedbug inspection with zero counts for infested or eradicated units. The most recent Department of Buildings inspections in 2023 regarding the boiler and vent/exhaust systems found no violations warranting concern, though there was a service violation issued in 2020 regarding egress issues that was addressed through Oath violation procedures.
