Document building violations to support tenant complaints and legal actions.
NYC tenants have the right to safe, habitable living conditions. When landlords fail to maintain their buildings, tenants can use violation records as evidence in complaints to HPD, proceedings in Housing Court, and rent reduction applications. Understanding your building's violation history empowers you to advocate for your rights effectively.
Tenants experiencing maintenance problems often don't know what violations already exist on their building, what complaints have been filed by other tenants, or how to document building conditions for legal proceedings. Navigating HPD, DOB, and other agency websites is confusing, and understanding what the violation records mean requires context.
RegWatch makes building violation records accessible and understandable for tenants. See all open violations, complaint history, and inspection results in plain language. Use the data to support HPD complaints, Housing Court proceedings, and applications for rent reductions through DHCR. The platform helps tenants understand their building's compliance status and their rights.
