795 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The three-story, converted dwelling building at 795 Flatbush Avenue, owned by Eric Setton, has experienced recurring maintenance issues over recent years, with the most pressing concerns being heat and hot water availability. In late 2023, multiple complaints were filed regarding lack of heat/hot water, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building during November. These complaints were eventually closed, with reports indicating restoration of services.

In 2021, the building encountered various sanitary issues, including rodent and roach infestations specifically documented in Apartment 3, along with sewage problems that resulted in several emergency violations. The building's safety compliance came under scrutiny in 2021 when multiple violations were recorded regarding smoke detector, carbon monoxide detector, and bedbug reporting requirements, though these issues appear to have been addressed by June 2021 based on violation certification dates. More recent developments include a 2023 Department of Buildings inspection that resulted in an active violation regarding occupancy contrary to the certificate of occupancy, specifically concerning a first-floor restaurant space that was allegedly subdivided.

The building has maintained a consistent record of bedbug free status in recent years, with official reports from 2019 through 2025 showing no infested units. Though there have been several health department complaints regarding food establishment issues, including recent reports of bare hands in contact with food and spoiled food, these were primarily related to the ground floor commercial space and not the residential units. The property appears to have addressed most of its historical maintenance issues, as evidenced by the closure of numerous violations, though the status of the current active ECB violation from 2023 regarding occupancy remains notable.
