117-11 Jamaica Avenue, Queens, NY 11418

This three-story, two-family house at 117-11 Jamaica Avenue in Richmond Hill, built in 1931 and currently owned by Jason Rose, has experienced several maintenance issues over the past five years, particularly affecting the third-floor apartment (Apartment 3). A significant cluster of violations was documented during 2022, including multiple problems with the kitchen (broken countertop and missing cabinet door), interior surfaces (peeling paint requiring repainting in multiple rooms), and various maintenance issues like floor damage, radiator cover problems, and electrical outlet repairs needed throughout different rooms, all of which have since been certified as corrected by October 2022.

In 2018, there was a heat/hot water complaint investigation by the Department of Housing Preservation and Development, though inspectors were unable to gain access to the unit to verify the reported conditions, and the case was closed. The building has maintained a clean record regarding bedbug infestations, with official filings from 2021 through 2024 showing zero infested or eradicated units.

Similarly, no rodent issues have been reported since 2012, when inspections conducted in both 2011 and 2012 passed without any findings. The most recent bedbug reports from 2023-2024 confirm the building remains free of this pest, continuing a trend of no documented infestations since 2020. While there was a notable concentration of housing maintenance violations in 2022, these were all addressed and closed by October of the same year, and no new violations have been recorded in the past two years.
