Augrented Insights Report for 185 Ocean Avenue

185 Ocean Avenue is an 8-story, 20-unit residential building constructed in 2008, currently owned by Josh Shine. The building's maintenance record shows regular annual bedbug reporting requirements from 2021 through 2023, though recent filings (2022-2024) indicate zero infested units, zero eradicated units, and zero re-infested units, suggesting effective management of this issue.

The property has experienced minimal significant violations, with Department of Buildings records showing only two resolved violations in 2020 and 2021, which were dismissed based on subsequent inspections confirming correction of defects. A professional certification compliance audit in October 2019 resulted in no violations being warranted upon inspection. The building's maintenance and inspection history includes three consecutive annual bedbug report violations (2021-2023), though these appear to be procedural rather than indicative of an ongoing infestation problem.

Regular rodent inspections in September 2017 and February 2019 both passed. Multiple permits were issued in 2019 for work classified as EW (Emergency Work) and PL (Plumbing), with no corresponding violation records. The most recent bedbug reporting history from 2024 shows continued compliance with all units reporting as free from infestations, suggesting successful resolution of any pest management concerns.
