This building has 34 recorded HPD violations, above the Borough Park average of 10.2.
The three-story, four-unit residential building at 4401 New Utrecht Avenue in Borough Park, constructed in 1930 and currently owned by A B Brokerage, Inc., has experienced numerous maintenance and safety issues over the past seven years. The building has accumulated 18 Class A violations, 25 Class B violations, and 9 Class C violations under the Housing Maintenance Code, along with 23 complaints and 24 service requests through 311. Of particular concern are the persistent heat and hot water problems, with multiple emergency complaints recorded in 2023, 2024, and 2026 regarding the entire building's heating system. Recent violations from June 2023 indicate issues with the low-pressure boiler system, specifically for failing to file the required 2020 external inspection. Additionally, there are ongoing concerns about the building's safety infrastructure, as evidenced by a safety complaint regarding the fire escape in April 2024. The property has also faced structural maintenance challenges, with violations documented in 2005 and 2020 related to defective plastered surfaces and paint in residential units, though these violations were subsequently dismissed. Furthermore, the building has an active Environmental Control Board violation from 2019 regarding an unpermitted sidewalk awning extension, with a penalty of $1,250 associated with the violation.

What's in the 4401 New Utrecht Avenue report
Is 4401 New Utrecht Avenue rent-stabilized?
Rent stabilization caps how much your rent can rise and protects your right to renew. Here's how this building scores on the four signals that usually point to it.
Based on public NYC records. Not legal advice — verify with the DHCR (Division of Housing and Community Renewal) at apps.hcr.ny.gov.
Is 4401 New Utrecht Avenue covered by Good Cause Eviction?
New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.
Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.
