1299 Rogers Avenue, Brooklyn

An active paper trail in the basement unit follows a recent ownership shift.

A 1935 Flatbush three-family rowhouse that recently changed hands after more than two decades under family ownership. A wave of housing-code citations hit the basement unit in April 2026, including hazardous plaster, window, and hallway violations. Three things to know:

A dense cluster of open violations centers on the basement unit. The address carries 15 open housing-code violations, with 13 class B and 2 class C citations issued in April 2026 alone. The orders target the basement apartment, calling for repairs to broken plaster, window sashes, light fixtures, and water leaks. An earlier 2025 order directed the owner to discontinue illegal cellar living space and cooking setups.

Complaints from inside the building flag wiring, leaks, and sewage odors. Calls to the city in April 2026 reported exposed wiring, defective outlets, floor damage, water leaks, and a sewage odor. Earlier complaints from July 2025 flagged missing lighting, refrigerator issues, and ventilation problems. The complaints line up with the physical violation orders issued against the lower level.

The building moved from long-term family hands to an LLC in 2025. Longtime individual owners sold the three-family house in July 2025 for $860,000 to Phantom Landlords LLC, headed by Ronald Kandov. The surge in housing-code filings and city calls followed shortly after the deed transferred.
