108-19 Jamaica Avenue, Queens, NY 11418

The 4-unit, 3-story building at 108-19 Jamaica Avenue in Richmond Hill, owned by Bill Li, has experienced several notable events since its conversion to Class A status. The building, constructed in 1931, has persistent bedbug reporting violations on record from 2019 through 2024, specifically related to the failure to file annual bedbug reports as required under HPD rules, with open violations remaining as of 2024. Additionally, the property currently has active Department of Buildings violations from 2023 regarding failure to file external low-pressure inspections for 2021 and 2022.

Multiple housing maintenance code violations were documented in 2019, primarily concerning inadequate safety and information postings in common areas, including carbon monoxide detector requirements, gas leak procedures, and various building notices, though one violation regarding heating system access was certified as resolved in June 2019. The building has experienced some maintenance-related issues, including a 311 service request in June 2019 regarding wall conditions that could not be inspected. A building vibration complaint from June 2019 was investigated but found no warrant for violation.

While there was one failed rodent inspection in June 2017, a subsequent compliance inspection in August 2017 passed. The property has had various permits issued in 2019 related to electrical work, though the specific nature of the work is not detailed in the records. While the bedbug infestation reporting forms from 2020-2021 show no affected units, the persistent violations regarding report filing suggest ongoing compliance issues. The most recent available inspection data shows open violations related to bedbug reporting requirements as of April 2024, indicating ongoing regulatory noncompliance.
