2733 Snyder Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The two-family house at 2733 Snyder Avenue in East Flatbush, owned by Tracy Balan, has experienced several significant maintenance issues, particularly during late 2022. In October 2022, urgent complaints were filed regarding unsanitary conditions in the first-floor apartment, specifically citing problems with mold, mouse, and roach infestations.

Investigations by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development confirmed these issues, leading to four open violations including a bathroom door replacement requirement, necessary repairs to a waste line in the bathroom wash basin, and the need to address both rodent and insect infestations throughout the first-floor apartment. A complaint regarding an illegal conversion was filed in October 2022, though inspectors were unable to gain access during their final attempt in December.

While the building's health concerns appeared to progress towards resolution, as evidenced by a passed rodent inspection in January 2023, the presence of multiple open violations from October 2022 suggests that not all issues had been fully addressed as of that date. The property's two-unit configuration and location in a primarily residential neighborhood have remained consistent since its construction in 1901, though the extensive nature of the reported violations in late 2022 raises significant concerns about the building's maintenance history and living conditions during that period.
