Reading the city’s record live

The city publishes everything.
That is the problem.

Millions of violation records across HPD, DOB, and OATH. Buried in them: the buildings that need your firm this month. We read the whole record, rank what is actionable, and hand you case files where every claim links to its source.

New York, drawn from 9,500 hazardous violations on the city record. Red pulses: the newest hazardous findings, each with its inspection date from the record. The city publishes on a short lag; the dates are its own.

The cut

Most of the record is noise. The work is knowing which part is not.

Every case below is a sample with fictional parties, in the exact shape a subscriber receives: the claim, the reason it matters now, and the link that proves it.

418 Halden Street

Sample

Brooklyn, Tier 1  87

14 open Class C

Why now

14 open Class C hazards, 3 items marked Not Complied With. Open violations stay on the record until corrected and certified, and can complicate a sale, refinance, or new permit.

Responsible party

Wick & Colt Property Group LLC, registered head officer

Source-linked (city record)HPD OnlineDOB BIS

22 Sorrel Lane

Sample

Queens, Tier 2  79

Why now

$18,750 in OATH/ECB matters pending, not yet of record. An unresolved default can be entered as a judgment; a matter answered while contestable stays contestable.

Recommended next step

File a response before the scheduled hearing. An unresolved default can be entered as a judgment.

Public-signalOATH/ECB: no direct link, verify at source

905 Fen Street

Sample

Bronx, Tier 1  91

22 open Class C

Why now

22 open Class C hazards across Vermin and Heat categories. Registration lapsed April 2026.

Recommended next step

Renew the HPD registration, then correct and certify the hazardous items.

Requires-verificationregistration stale; the file flags it instead of hiding it

The rollup

One office. Five buildings. One conversation.

Recurrence is the signal a single lookup can never show. When the same registered contact appears across buildings with open hazards, five separate problems become one relationship, with one registered contact on file. We match on the exact registered record, never a guess.

Omissions

What we refuse to tell you.

Most lead lists are padded with claims the record cannot support. Ours are not. The strikethroughs are permanent.

Deadlines the record does not containNo per-case deadline field exists in the city data. We never invent a clock.
Dollar amounts owedThe record carries penalties of record and pending matters. A live running balance is not in the data, so it is not in the brief.
Owner intent or neglectNo field describes what an owner knows or has decided. Inference is not evidence.
Predicted outcomesHearing results are published after they happen. We report the record, not a forecast.
If the record does not support it, the brief does not say it.
