Augrented Insights Report for 1985 Ocean Avenue

1985 Ocean Avenue is a 6-story, 47-unit residential building constructed in 1948 and currently owned by Brandon Deleon. The building has experienced recurring heating and hot water system issues in 2025, with multiple complaints filed through March to June reporting either no service or intermittent problems throughout the entire building or specific units. Prior to these recent issues, the building faced various maintenance challenges, including mold and water leak problems reported in early 2025, and an October 2024 ceiling painting violation with documented violations for Apartment 5B.

This apartment unit was cited for multiple issues including water leaks, defective plaster surfaces, missing carbon monoxide detectors, and infestation concerns, though many of these violations were subsequently certified as corrected by late 2024. The building has a documented history of elevator service complaints, with eight such complaints between 2018 and 2024, though recent inspections in November 2024 and January 2025 found no violations at the time of inspection. Environmental Control Board violations from 2019-2023 indicate ongoing elevator maintenance concerns, including issues with door mechanisms and oil leaks.

The property's heating system maintenance has shown persistent issues, with 2020-2021 violations related to burner and flame-related equipment needing attention. While the building was officially free of bedbug infestations in the 2021-2022 reporting period, there was one reported case in 2019-2020. Rodent inspections have yielded mixed results, with recent inspections in 2022-2023 showing contradictory outcomes, featuring both passed and failed inspections. The building's exterior maintenance was addressed through various permits and violations, including a 2019 permit for work related to the sidewalk curb cut.
