How to check a building's HPD registration

It shows: Valid through a date, expired on a date, or none on file
Where it comes from: HPD's datasets on NYC Open Data
Not shown: Repair violations, complaints and court cases

Each HPD property registration has an end date. The city publishes it, so anyone can see whether a building's registration is still valid.

What our building check shows

Whether HPD's records show a registration, and the date it is valid through or the date it expired
The date of the last bed bug report on file, for buildings with 3 or more apartments
Open HPD violations for a missing registration or a missing bed bug report
The number of apartments HPD has on file

It reads HPD's datasets on NYC Open Data. It does not show repair violations, complaints or court cases.

What each result means

Valid through a date. The building has a registration. A new one is due every year from May 21 to September 1.
Expired on a date. The building needs a new registration. HPD may send an Order to register to buildings without a valid registration: see the violation for a missing registration.
No registration on file. HPD's records do not list a registration for the building.

Where the city publishes it

HPD Online shows building information, which may include complaints, violations, litigation and property registration. HPD's registration records are also published as the Multiple Dwelling Registrations dataset on NYC Open Data.

How Woodpecker handles it

After you sign up we keep watching these records for your building, remind you before every deadline, and email you when HPD records your filing.
