Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The two-story, two-unit building at 120-02 23 Avenue in College Point, built in 1925 and currently owned by Rocco Fazzolari, has experienced several significant maintenance issues recently. The property has an alarming number of documented problems in the past year alone, including multiple heating system failures affecting the entire building (February 2023), repeated ceiling plaster and paint issues (January 2023), and a pest infestation involving both roaches and mice in Apartment 1R (January 2023). More concerning, the building was cited on April 21, 2023, for two Class C (immediately hazardous) violations: one for lead-based paint hazards in a specific room and another for an illegal double-cylinder locking device at the apartment entrance. Historical records show persistent illegal conversion complaints dating back to 2006, with the most recent complaint filed in April 2023, though all these complaints have been closed.

Good Cause Eviction

Is 120-02 23 Avenue covered by Good Cause Eviction?

New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.

Likely not covered. This building appears to be exempt from Good Cause Eviction for the reason below.
  • Small landlord. This landlord owns about 2 units across 1 building in our records — at or below the 10-unit small-landlord threshold.

Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.
