805 Ocean Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11226

The 16-unit, 4-story residential tenement building at 805 Ocean Avenue in Flatbush, owned by Rony Kravel, has experienced recurring maintenance issues throughout 2024 and 2025. Most recently, in February 2025, violations were issued for problems with ceiling paint/plaster and door frames, both of which were officially closed following HPD inspections. A significant cluster of emergency maintenance issues arose in June 2025, including problems with mold, steam pipes, flooring, wall plaster, and window frames.

The building's history shows persistent maintenance challenges, with multiple paint/plaster issues documented between 2024 and 2025, as well as window and door frame problems. While there were two unable-to-access inspections in 2024, many complaints have required subsequent inspection due to apparent ongoing issues. The building's violation history indicates active issues with its external low-pressure system, with violations from June 2023 for failing to file inspections for both 2018 and 2019.

A concerning violation from October 2020 involved inadequate gas supply to a fixture in apartment 11, though this was certified as corrected by November 2020. The building has maintained a clean bedbug record in recent years, with official reports from 2022-2023 showing zero infested or re-infested units, and no violations for failed reporting in 2021 or 2022. Despite the many maintenance complaints and violations, the building's owners have generally responded by addressing most issues, though some patterns of recurring problems suggest ongoing challenges with building maintenance and upkeep.
