307 Ditmas Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11218

The three-story residential building at 307 Ditmas Avenue in Kensington, owned by Moses Sharabi, has experienced numerous maintenance issues and violations, particularly over the past two years. Most notably, between April and May 2025, there were multiple emergency complaints regarding water leaks (heavy flow), unsanitary conditions including mold and pests, ceiling issues, electrical problems, flooring concerns, and a broken window guard. These complaints were generally marked as closed due to HPD's inability to complete inspections.

Furthermore, during 2023-2024, significant violations were documented in Apartment 2, including persistent water leaks affecting multiple bathroom walls and ceilings, mold and pest infestations, broken plaster surfaces, and issues with window guards - all classified as Class B or C violations requiring urgent attention. The building has also faced challenges with building access and safety concerns. There are open violations from 2023 regarding a broken entrance lock (Class C), and a bedbug report from 2024 indicates no infestation during the reporting period.

Earlier issues included problems with scaffolding in 2021 that resulted in two Environmental Control Board violations with substantial penalties, though one was resolved. The property's maintenance history shows a pattern of water-related issues, with six water leak complaints between 2023-2025. While some complaints have been closed, many were due to inspection access issues rather than resolution of the reported problems. The building's age (constructed in 1930) and its designation as "HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A" suggest it may have undergone changes from its original construction, though specific details of any conversions are not provided in the available data.
