2195 Ocean Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11229

2195 Ocean Avenue is a two-story, four-unit residential building located in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, constructed in 1924 and currently owned by Kerong Mai. The building has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years, with the most significant being recurring problems with the heating system. In April 2024, there were multiple heat/hot water complaints, including a violation for inadequate heat supply in apartment 1F and another for locked access to the boiler room.

These heating system issues followed three consecutive years (2021-2023) of violations related to the failure to file mandatory bedbug reports, though the most recent report filed in April 2024 indicates no active infestations or eradication efforts between November 2022 and October 2023, with no units reported as re-infested. The building has maintained a record of prompt addressing of violations, with most being certified as closed within a reasonable timeframe, such as the April 2024 violations being certified by April 10, 2024. There have been no significant safety violations noted in the recent inspections.

Two external complaints were filed regarding the property - in 2019 and 2024 - but both were dismissed with no violations observed during inspections. While the property has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly with heating systems and bedbug reporting compliance, the rapid response to violations and lack of severe safety concerns may indicate regular management oversight of basic building maintenance. The building's age and recurring heating system issues may warrant attention, though there is no current evidence of active pest problems based on the latest bedbug report.
