A difference between the DHCR rent-stabilized count and the PLUTO total is common and does not, on its own, indicate a violation: units can leave rent stabilization legally, the two datasets count units differently, some units may be non-residential, and a registration can be filed incompletely. To check your own apartment, see how to request your rent history from DHCR.
City records show 1 open HPD violation at this building. Ask which are still unresolved in the unit and the landlord’s timeline to clear them.
The oldest open violation on record dates to 2024 — why has it stayed open this long, and is it in or near this unit?
DHCR’s most recent registration lists 270 rent-stabilized units here. Ask whether this specific unit is one of them, and ask the landlord for its legal regulated rent and lease history.
