86-22 124th Street, Queens, NY 11418

This three-story, three-unit residential building at 86-22 124th Street in Richmond Hill, owned by Michael Rus, has experienced several notable issues since its construction in 2016. Most recently, in May 2025, there were multiple complaints regarding heat and hot water issues affecting the entire building, with complaints filed to both HPD and the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.

HPD's attempt to inspect the property was unsuccessful due to access issues, and while there was also a rodent sighting reported in May 2025, this complaint was also closed without resolution. The building has maintained an open violation record for failing to submit annual bedbug reports for four consecutive years (2021-2024), though these violations are classified as "A" and not directly related to current resident safety concerns. On a more positive note, a rodent inspection conducted in June 2025 resulted in a passing score, suggesting improved conditions in this area since previous complaints.

The building has also undergone regular inspections, with the most recent rodent inspection showing compliance with health standards. While the building has experienced recurring issues with heat and hot water service interruptions, particularly in 2025, and has an outstanding violation regarding bedbug reporting requirements, the most recent rodent inspection indicates some improvement in property maintenance. The ongoing challenges with heat and hot water systems, along with access issues during inspections, suggest some difficulties with building maintenance and communication with regulatory agencies, though these issues may have been partially mitigated by the building's relatively recent construction date of 2016.
