Violations & open permits

Your listing is public. So is your violation history.

Anyone can pull the DOB and HPD record on your address, and a buyer’s attorney will. An open violation or an unclosed permit from work done years ago is enough to stall a closing.

Violation removal and permit close-out across all five boroughs.

Free Property, Tax, Lien, Code & Violations Report

Send us the address. We pull the full public record and send you back what is open against the property, what it will cost to clear, and how long it takes. No charge and no obligation.

FACT:

The public record of New York City Housing Preservation & Development (HPD) according to Local Law 104 states that you have violations on your property.

Most owners find out from a buyer’s attorney. By then it is a delay.
What the report covers

The full public record on your address.

Five searches, one report. Everything a buyer’s attorney or title company will find when they look.

Property & tax

Ownership record, assessed value, outstanding taxes and any arrears attached to the property.

Liens

Recorded liens and judgments, including the ones that come from unpaid violation penalties.

Code & violations

DOB, ECB and HPD violations, stop work orders and civil penalties, listed with current status.

Why sales stall

The record does not clear itself when you list.

Open permits from finished work

Plumbing, electrical or mechanical work that was started and never signed off stays open on the record.

ECB violations with running penalties

Unanswered violations accrue civil penalties and eventually become a lien against the property.

HPD violations you were never notified about

Class A, B and C violations sit on the public record whether or not the notice reached you.

A buyer's attorney finds it first

Title comes back with an issue days before closing, and the deal either delays or gets renegotiated.
