Augrented Insights Report for 699 Ocean Avenue

The 95-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 699 Ocean Avenue in Flatbush, owned by Jaig Rene, has experienced persistent heating and hot water system issues throughout 2025, with eight documented complaints between February and May 2025 about the entire building lacking heat and hot water. While inspectors typically found that heat and hot water had been restored by the time of their investigation, a May 2025 emergency complaint remained active. The building has also faced several maintenance challenges, including multiple elevator-related violations, with significant issues recorded in 2023-2024 regarding door checks, leveling, and lighting, resulting in penalties totaling $3,125.

Recent inspections and violation records show ongoing concerns with building systems and safety features. In 2024, violations were documented regarding self-closing doors, floor tiles, and security systems. A water leak and ceiling damage were reported in Apartment 1F's bathroom, and Apartment 3C reportedly lacked adequate heat.

The building has a history of rodent activity, with multiple inspections between 2018-2022 confirming the presence of rats. While there have been periods of bedbug infestations (with four units affected in 2024), recent reports from 2024-2025 show zero units requiring eradication. The building's management has received multiple citations for various safety concerns, including problems with the carbon monoxide and smoke detectors in Apartment 4C (late 2023), and violations related to the elevator system requiring periodic attention and repairs since at least 2018.
