Augrented Insights Report for 1901 Dorchester Road

The 8-story, 40-unit building at 1901 Dorchester Road in Flatbush, owned by Alan Shamah, has experienced several significant maintenance issues in recent years, particularly in early 2025. The building faced multiple heat and hot water complaints from January to March 2025, affecting both individual apartments and the entire building, with HPD inspections finding conditions that either did not violate housing laws or encountered access issues.

Additionally, there were multiple rodent-related complaints and sightings in early 2025, with inspections confirming rat activity and follow-up bait applications continuing through mid-2025. The building has open Housing Maintenance Code violations from late 2024 affecting apartment 8E, including issues with electrical outlets and plastered surfaces, and a Class C violation in apartment 1D for a mouse infestation. Earlier inspections in 2024 found various issues in apartment 8B requiring repairs to floors, bathroom fixtures, and paint work.

The property is currently facing active ECB violations regarding parking structure inspection requirements from 2024, with a penalty of $1,250. Historical records show concerns about occupancy and illegal conversions between 2019-2020, though these violations have been resolved. The building's management has generally addressed most violations through inspections and repairs, though recurring issues like heat and rodent problems suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and resident comfort.
