31-10 103rd Street, Queens, NY 11369

The three-story, three-unit building at 31-10 103rd Street in East Elmhurst, owned by Rafaela Nunez, has experienced several notable events and ongoing regulatory issues since 2019. Most concerning are the recurring violations related to bedbug reporting requirements, with open violations documented in 2022, 2023, and most recently in April 2024, indicating a persistent failure to comply with Housing Maintenance Code requirements regarding annual bedbug reporting.

Between 2019-2020, the building did submit a bedbug report showing no infested units, but this was prior to the emergence of the recent violations. The building also had a significant safety-related violation in 2021 regarding gas leak procedures, though this was marked as closed.

The property has been the subject of three complaints investigated by the Department of Buildings in 2023-2024, including concerns about construction activity beyond approved plans, an alleged illegal conversion, and reports of building shaking or vibration. All three inspections were marked with "Inspector Unable To Gain Access – 2nd Final Attempt" as the final disposition, suggesting access issues hindered the investigation process. Prior to these complaints, the building had multiple administrative code violations identified during a June 2019 inspection, including requirements for posting various informational notices in common areas, such as heating system access, registration numbers, inspection certificates, and housing information guides, though most of these violations were subsequently closed.
