245 Van Buren Street, Staten Island, NY 10301

The two-family house at 245 Van Buren Street in Randall Manor, owned by Nailj Kocic, has a documented history of maintenance issues over the past several years. Most notably, there has been a recurring pattern of unresolved housing code violations, including a recent paint/plaster ceiling issue reported in September 2023 that remained uninspected and closed in April 2024.

Between November 2020 and September 2021, multiple complaints were filed including electrical outlet/switch problems, windows frame issues, and a significant water leak described as heavy flow, all of which were categorized as emergencies but notably closed without inspection access being granted to the Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD). During the same period, there was also a ceiling paint/plaster complaint that followed the same pattern of being closed without inspection access.

The most recent pest control report from June 2025 shows no evidence of bedbug infestations in the building between November 2023 and October 2024, with no units requiring eradication or experiencing re-infestation during this period. While the building has experienced its share of maintenance issues, particularly during 2020-2021, the absence of recent complaints since 2023 and the clear bedbug-free status in the latest report may indicate some improvement in overall building conditions. However, it's important to note that several complaints from 2020-2021 were not able to be properly inspected, which could suggest potential ongoing maintenance concerns that were not fully addressed at the time.
