RegWatch integrates HPD violation data including all Class A (non-hazardous), Class B (hazardous), and Class C (immediately hazardous) violations, along with building registration data and complaint history.
HPD violations are critical for residential property due diligence. Class C violations must be corrected within 24 hours. A building with extensive HPD violation history may indicate systemic maintenance issues. HPD data also reveals rent stabilization status — essential for investors evaluating multifamily properties.
RegWatch shows HPD violations alongside DOB and ECB data, providing a complete compliance picture. Portfolio monitoring alerts you to new HPD violations so you can respond before they escalate.
Class A = non-hazardous (e.g., minor maintenance). Class B = hazardous (e.g., pests, leaks). Class C = immediately hazardous (e.g., no heat/hot water, lead paint). Class C violations must be corrected within 24 hours.
