Augrented Insights Report for 5225 14th Avenue

5225 14th Avenue is a 46-unit, 4-story residential building located in Borough Park, constructed in 1925 and currently owned by Heshy Botkenecht. The building has experienced numerous maintenance issues in 2025, including rodent problems, failed inspections regarding access for inspections of unsanitary conditions and pests, paint/plaster issues, and an open heat/hot water complaint as of May 2025.

Multiple Housing Maintenance Code complaints were filed in May 2025 alone, though many were closed without violations being confirmed. The property has several active violations from 2024, notably including an open violation regarding annual bedbug reporting requirements and issues with the intercom system and self-closing doors in Apartment B2. Previous records from 2021-2024 show significant concerns about the building's maintenance, including two active Environmental Control Board violations from 2021 related to water damage in Apartments B2 and 3B8, along with various complaints about unauthorized work, building stability, and stop work order violations.

The building's systems have shown repeated problems, with documented issues including plumbing, electrical, and pest control concerns. A rodent inspection in June 2025 resulted in a "Failed for Other Reasons" designation, indicating ongoing concerns about vermin control. While there have been some resolved violations and complaints, the frequency and nature of the issues suggest persistent maintenance challenges, particularly regarding communication between tenants and inspection authorities, as evidenced by multiple instances of inspectors being unable to gain access for inspections.
