How Do I Find Out Who Owns My Building in NYC?

Every NYC residential building with 3+ units must register with HPD annually, disclosing the owner's name and contact address — that record is public. Search any address at 311tracker.com to see the registered owner's violation history and whether they control other buildings in the city.

• NYC's ACRIS database (acris.nyc.gov) shows deed and ownership records — search by address for the legal owner name on file
• HPD Online (hpdonline.nyc.gov) lists the registered owner and managing agent under "Building Registration"
• If your building is owned by an LLC, HPD registration still requires a named individual contact — that person is legally responsible for maintenance
• 311tracker's worst landlords section links owner names to their full NYC portfolio ranked by open violations per unit

To find out who owns a property anywhere in New York State, check the county clerk's office, or use nyc.gov/acris for all five boroughs.
