83-27 Parsons Boulevard, Queens, NY 11432

The three-unit, two-story building at 83-27 Parsons Boulevard in Jamaica Hills, constructed in 1930 and currently owned by Jiehua Guo, has experienced several notable maintenance issues in recent years. Most significantly, between November 2023 and August 2023, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water issues, plumbing problems (including toilets and bathtubs), and unsanitary conditions including evidence of pests and mold.

The Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) was unable to gain access for inspections on several occasions, though violations were issued in August 2023 for various issues in second-floor apartment 2F, including mold in the bathroom ceiling, leaky bathtub faucets, cabinet repairs, and the presence of roaches. These housing maintenance code violations were later closed after certification in August 2023.

Additional concerns include three active Department of Buildings violations from 2019-2023 regarding failures to file required boiler inspections, and the building's bedbug reporting history shows one infested unit in 2023 (with eradication confirmed) and no reported infestations in the most recent 2024-2025 filing period. The property has also experienced mechanical issues with appliances, including multiple complaints about the refrigerator between 2022 and 2023, though HPD often could not gain access to inspect these problems. While many violations have been addressed and closed, the pattern of repeat issues, particularly regarding heat/hot water and plumbing systems, suggests ongoing maintenance challenges within the building.
