31-15 Seagirt Avenue, Queens, NY 11691

The two-family house at 31-15 Seagirt Avenue in Far Rockaway, owned by Israel Yakubov, has experienced significant maintenance issues over the past two years, with the most pressing concerns emerging in August and October 2023. The building, constructed in 2003, has documented multiple violations related to apartment conditions, particularly in the second-floor unit (Apt 2NDFLO), including pest infestations (specifically roaches), water damage, and various repairs needed for walls, flooring, and cabinetry. Recent inspections have resulted in multiple open violations as of October 2023, including requirements to repair window elements, address pest problems, fix plastered surfaces, and ensure proper carbon monoxide detection systems are installed.

A specific violation opened in October 2023 requires the installation of adequate entrance lighting. The building's maintenance history reveals recurring issues with pests, as shown by service requests and violations in both 2023 and 2021. October 2023 brought new violations related to window frames, walls, and flooring, while August 2023 highlighted concerns about window guards and additional maintenance needs.

The property has undergone some rodent inspections, passing a compliance check in November 2021 after initially failing in August 2021 for unspecified reasons. Despite numerous service requests and inspections, not all complaints have resulted in violations, though many have been documented through HPD's Housing Maintenance Code system. The pattern of violations and service requests suggests ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly affecting the second-floor unit, with some improvements documented through the closure of older violations.
