9016 4th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11209

The 3-story, 5-unit residential building at 9016 4th Avenue in Fort Hamilton, owned by Youssef Sarji, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years. In July 2022, multiple complaints were filed regarding various maintenance issues, including unsanitary conditions (pests and mold), and problems with paint/plaster on ceilings and walls, as well as floor issues.

These complaints were all filed on July 26, 2022, and while some were classified as emergency situations (specifically the mold issue), they were closed by August 8, 2022, due to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development's inability to gain access for inspection. The building has two notable violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with inspections conducted in April 2021 and March 2023 indicating non-compliance with the requirement to file annual bedbug reports.

However, the most recent bedbug filings (as of May 2025) show no reported infestations for the past five consecutive reporting periods from 2020 through 2024, with the most recent reporting period indicating zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units. This suggests successful remediation of previous pest issues, though the violations for failure to file reports remain on record as of March 2023. The building's structure, built in 1924 as a New Law Tenement, has shown several maintenance challenges over the years, particularly in mid-2022, but recent bedbug reports indicate a current absence of infestations, while the previous violations and closed complaints suggest a history of minor but notable maintenance concerns.
