4702 Avenue N, Brooklyn, NY 11234

The two-family house at 4702 Avenue N in Flatlands, owned by Lisamarie Leone, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past five years, with the most recent concerns centering around utility compliance. As of April 2023, there is an active Department of Buildings violation for failure to file the 2022 external low pressure inspection, and a previous violation from November 2019 regarding non-filing of the 2017 boiler inspection was dismissed in December 2019 after a penalty was paid.

The building has had multiple tenant complaints investigated by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD), including a gas supply issue affecting the kitchen range in apartment 2R (October 2021), problems with an electric/gas range (September 2021), and two incidents of heat/hot water issues in March 2020, though heat and hot water were reportedly restored in those instances. The property has a history of various maintenance challenges, including pest issues and problems with ceiling conditions reported in January 2021, though inspectors were unable to gain access to assess these conditions.

Notably, the building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with official reports from 2022, 2023, and 2025 showing zero infested units. Multiple plumbing-related permits were issued in 2019 and most recently in March 2025, suggesting ongoing infrastructure maintenance or improvements. While the building has experienced several maintenance issues over the years, the absence of recent bedbug reports and the resolution of most HPD complaints (albeit with some violations noted) indicate that many past concerns have been addressed, though the current low pressure inspection violation remains outstanding.
