AI summary · updated June 2026

The 3-unit, 2-story building at 2447 East 12th Street in Sheepshead Bay, owned by Zhen Xiang Lei, has maintained a generally positive record since its construction in 1930 as a HERETOFORE CONVERTED CLASS A building. The property has undergone regular bedbug reporting compliance checks, with the most recent reports (2023-2024, 2024-2025) showing no instances of infestation in any dwelling units, and consistent documentation of zero infested, zero eradicated, and zero re-infested units. The building's bedbug reporting history shows a regular pattern of compliance, with violations noted in 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 regarding the late filing of annual bedbug reports, though these violations have been subsequently closed.

In addition to the bedbug compliance requirements, the building underwent a rodent inspection in February 2019, which resulted in a passing grade. The property has shown a commitment to maintaining compliance with housing maintenance codes, particularly regarding pest management, with prompt rectification of violations once identified. As of the latest available data in 2025, there are no outstanding violations or significant safety concerns on record for this building.
