105-44 62nd Drive, Queens, NY 11375

The two-family house at 105-44 62nd Drive in Forest Hills, owned by Ying Sau Liu, has experienced numerous maintenance issues over the past several years, with the most pressing concerns emerging in early 2025. Between February and March 2025, multiple non-emergency complaints were filed regarding various problems, including water leaks, ceiling and wall issues, and pest infestations. Of particular note, there were repeated complaints about mold, pests, and water leaks that prompted HPD inspections, though they were unable to complete their inspections in several cases.

The building has a concerning history of rodent problems, with multiple bait applications conducted between January and February 2025, following documented rat activity in August 2024 and January 2025. Looking back further, the building has several open Housing Maintenance Code violations from 2022 concerning both units. Apartment 1 has violations related to inadequate heating, roof leaks, ceiling and wall repair needs, and pest infestations, while Apartment 2 requires attention for peeling paint, roof leak issues, and various repair needs.

Specifically, these violations include problems with lead-based paint hazards and multiple instances of required painting and plaster repair work. The building's history also shows emergency complaints in early 2025 regarding stairs and balcony conditions, though these were found not to violate housing laws. The persistent nature of the pest and maintenance issues, particularly in 2025, suggests ongoing challenges with building upkeep and tenant comfort.
