NYC buildings with the most violations

High violation counts are not always disqualifying if issues are closed — open and Class C records matter more.

Search an address, open the violations page, and compare open vs historical filings before negotiating or walking away.

RentersFax surfaces open counts, Class C hazards, and a five-year total so you can separate noisy history from active risk.

If the violations page shows many Class C opens, bring that into your negotiation or walk — photos and broker tours will not show what HPD already logged.

• Sort attention toward open and Class C records
• Read the violations subpage for each finalist
• Check landlord pages for portfolio-wide patterns
• Bring unresolved issues into your negotiation message
