3103 Buhre Avenue, Bronx

A small Pelham Bay walk-up transitioning out of long-term family hands, facing a spike in open maintenance citations.

After fifty-six years under family ownership, the Baboukis estate sold this 10-unit Pelham Bay rental to 1020 Rutland LLC in January 2025 for $1.1M. A wave of deferred maintenance surfaced shortly after the purchase. Three things to know:

A sudden wave of open housing violations hit the building in June 2026. 17 active open code violations hit the building in June 2026 alone, including 13 Class B citations. The issues span roof leaks dripping into apartments 3A and 3C, cracked cement balcony structures at the front, defective bathroom ventilation, and missing smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

Refuse accumulation and entrance maintenance are active friction points. The June 2026 citations detail uncollected refuse and rubbish piling up at the front courtyard, along with missing waste storage receptacles and broken mailboxes at the entrance. On top of code citations, six missed-trash calls were filed within a two-week span.

The surrounding three blocks see heavy parking enforcement calls. 1,187 illegal parking calls were logged within three blocks over the last year, mostly driven by 717 blocked-hydrant reports along commercial corridors. The activity is ongoing, with calls recorded through September 19, 2026.

Quieter signals on this building and the blocks around it:

• 14 construction and plumbing calls logged against the building, including recent water-leak and door-repair issues
• 115 residential noise calls within three blocks over the last year, predominantly banging and pounding
• DOB violation data is unverified for this building; check municipal filings directly before signing
