63-25 Saunders Street, Queens, NY 11374

The 6-story, 66-unit building at 63-25 Saunders Street in Rego Park, owned by Rego Realty LLC, has experienced significant maintenance challenges throughout 2025, particularly concerning heat/hot water systems and plumbing issues. Between January and June 2025, there were multiple complaints and violations regarding heat and hot water services, with some inspections unable to gain access to apartments for verification. The building has also faced recurring water supply problems, with plumbing issues reported in March and June 2025.

Additional maintenance concerns include pest problems (two unsanitary condition complaints in 2025), a window frame issue, and various apartment-specific problems. The most recent violations, recorded in December 2024, primarily affected apartment 7F and included issues with paint conditions (including lead paint hazards), various maintenance concerns such as window guards, window frames, and bathroom fixtures. The building has a history of elevator maintenance issues, with complaints and violations recorded in 2018-2024, though recent tenant safety inspections in 2024-2025 found no violations warranting action.

Importantly, the building has had consistent bedbug management, with no reported infestations in the past three years (2022-2025), following one isolated case in 2019-2020 that was promptly addressed. The property has undergone multiple inspections and received various violations over the years, though many have been resolved promptly. Recent housing maintenance code violations have been addressed through certified corrections, demonstrating some level of responsiveness to regulatory requirements. The building's infrastructure, being over 80 years old, is showing signs of age, particularly in critical systems such as heating and plumbing, which appears to be a persistent challenge requiring ongoing attention.
