1218 Ralph Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11236

1218 Ralph Avenue is a two-family residential property located in East Flatbush, built in 1945 and currently owned by Michael Yehounatan. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past decade, with the most significant concentration of violations occurring in 2016. During that year, multiple violations were documented, including water leak problems, inadequate gas supply to kitchen fixtures, and various defects in the front entrance stairs and exterior walls.

These violations, while all marked as "Close" following subsequent inspections and repairs, indicated various safety and habitability concerns at the time. More recent history shows two complaints in 2022 related to permit issues, both of which were resolved with "No Violation Warranted" findings. A third complaint from 2018 resulted in an "Inspector Unable To Gain Access" disposition.

Throughout these documented issues, the property has maintained compliance with Housing Maintenance Code requirements by addressing violations and obtaining necessary certifications, with the last known significant violations being closed in 2019. The building's violation history suggests a period of necessary repairs and maintenance in 2016-2019, particularly regarding the front entrance and kitchen facilities, though no recent violations have been recorded in the past few years. While the property's historical maintenance record shows various issues that could have impacted resident comfort and safety, it appears that these have been systematically addressed over time, with no new violations documented since 2019.
