•• further building(s) match this owner's name but not their mailing address — deliberately not listed. On this database one common name maps to 159 buildings across 476 different mailing addresses (dozens of unrelated people), while a genuine operator's 158 concentrate on 5. A name alone is a lead to check, not a holding to report.
One connected owner group. Every building below is reached from the same group of 1 owner key, so every property in it shows this same list — whichever page you open.Shared mailing addresses and DOB/HPD filing links are evidence, not grouping — see Connected buildings below.

Connected buildings

Buildings connected to this owner through a shared registered office, an HPD registration or a shared deed mailing address are listed for signed-in readers.

What this cannot see 3
Staten Island. ACRIS is the City Register's system and covers New York, Bronx, Kings and Queens counties only — Richmond County records are held by the county clerk. 144,675 buildings against 389 recorded sales.

Mortgages. A borrower's address would be the most current evidence available and none of it is here: 4,213,064 mortgage documents carry no party records, so no connection shown rests on one.

Unlinked condo lots. 5,141 condo unit lots have no identifiable parent building — they sit on blocks holding several condominiums, or none this data can tell apart — so a connection through one of them cannot be made at all.

An implied value, not an appraisal. It knows nothing about condition, renovation, floor, light or lease status, and DOF building class is a coarse peer definition — No block-level peer set was large enough, so this widens to the census tract — a weaker comparison that can cross into a different building era. Deliberately a broad comparison for now; unit mix, floor and condition are a later refinement. Use it to answer "is this owner sitting on more than they think", not to price a deal.
⚠️ Debugging view — two sources, not one answer. The comps above are ACRIS. Below, the same peer set counted from DOF Annualized Sales. This is here so the two can be compared while it is decided which one the comps should read; it is temporary and it is not part of the valuation.

Same geography and same window as the ACRIS comps above (•••••••••••, •• months), so the only things that differ between these rows are the source and the package rule. •• of •• DOF rows here share a date and a price with another lot and are dropped from the filtered row.
The filter is an inference, and DOF cannot confirm it. DOF publishes no deed id, no CRFN, no instrument identifier of any kind, so there is no exact way to tell a package deal from two unrelated sales that happened to close at the same price on the same day. This drops both. It also only sees packages whose other lots are inside this peer set — one spanning several blocks is invisible here. Citywide it is not a small effect: 189,389 of 582,125 priced DOF rows (32.5%) share a date and price with another lot.

Companies whose NY DOS registered address is this building. This is a fact about the address, not about the owner — in a multi-unit property these are tenants and residents filing from home, and the owner may be none of them. Entities naming an apartment are listed apart for that reason.

Federal tax liens IRS liens linked to this property's owners, from ACRIS

Sign in to see federal tax liens linked to this property.

A federal tax lien is the IRS's claim against a TAXPAYER for unpaid federal tax. It attaches to what that person or company owns; it is filed under their name and address, not against a building. "No release on record" describes the record: a lien paid recently may not show its release yet, and a lien with no release past the IRS's 10-year collection limit has normally expired. These are not the city's tax liens (unpaid property tax or water charges), which are a lien on the property itself and are listed under Tax liens in the records below.

Two badges. The blue one counts what is still live — open violations, pending court cases, unrescinded vacate orders. The outlined one is the total ever recorded, shown only when it differs. A landlord with sixteen closed housing-court cases and none pending reads 0 on the first and 16 on the second; showing only the first would hide the pattern entirely.
