2174 East 9th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11223

The property at 2174 East 9th Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Avi Jajati, is a 2-story, 3-unit building constructed in 1925 that has transitioned to a Class A building designation. The building has experienced recurring issues regarding compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements, specifically regarding the mandatory annual bedbug reporting.

As documented through violations from 2021 to 2024, the property has accumulated four consecutive open violations related to the failure to file the required bedbug reports, though no specific bedbug infestations have been reported. More recently, the building has faced challenges with rodent control.

A rat sighting was reported in March 2024, though a subsequent Department of Health and Mental Hygiene inspection found no violations. The property has undergone multiple bait applications in 2024 (June, August, and initially in March), indicating ongoing efforts to address the rodent issue, with the March inspection being noted as "Passed". While the building has still maintained its basic safety requirements as evidenced by inspections finding no violations, the pattern of open violations and service requests related to pest control suggests that both rodent and bedbug management remain areas requiring attention, particularly given the building's long-standing history of bedbug report compliance issues over the past four years.
