Bad apartments don't announce themselves. Here's what waits for the renters who didn't look.
That fresh coat of paint is covering something. The city might have filed a dozen building code violations in the last two years — unresolved, unfixed. The listing won't mention them. Your landlord won't either. Once you've signed, you're their tenant, not their problem to impress.
Once you've signed, breaking the lease costs thousands. Knowing before costs nothing.
There are landlords in NYC who own 30+ buildings with hundreds of open complaints across them — and keep doing it because most renters check one building without knowing about the other 29. A pattern that's invisible from one address is obvious when you see the whole portfolio.
One bad landlord can mean 12 months of ignored repairs, withheld deposits, and legal headaches.
The permit history, violation record, 311 complaint log, fire incident reports — all public record. Just scattered across 15 different city databases that no individual has time to query. So most renters sign on information that's available but inaccessible.
We pull all of it. You read one report.
From the Possible podcast with Reid Hoffman
My favorite GPT‑3 service was a tool called Augrented, which would help tenants...Many people in that demographic wouldn’t necessarily have access to a lawyer — you can actually help people do things they wouldn’t be able to otherwise.
What you get
Our machine learning model analyzes every building's trajectory — not just its current violations — and predicts the likelihood of future code violations up to 12 months in advance. A building that's been clean for 10 years and started slipping two years ago is a different risk than one that's been consistent. You'd never know the difference without this.
We pull from 50+ government databases and connect permits, violations, complaints, fire incidents, 311 calls, and more — so you don't have to. Not just the last 6 months. The full history.

A building is only as good as the person managing it. We surface real owner names, contact info, and every other property in their portfolio — so patterns that were invisible from one address become unmistakable.
Read reviews from verified tenants, flag unhelpful ones, and contribute your own experience after you move in. The public record shows what was filed. Tenants tell you what it was like to actually live through it.
"On Friday 8/6/2026. Sitco management company building manager showed up with a large dumpster and a team of theives and they stole belongings that tenants had started to store due to the rise in storage cost. Without warning stole from us tenants. What do we do with theives. ?"
"I lived there for 3 years . There is no access to heat in the front bedroom or living room or dining room . The yard was over run with garbage and rats . The landlord’s boyfriend would make unwanted advances at me and my teenage daughter. She would have parties all night . It was a nightmare !!"
"Ever since I’ve been in this apartment all I have is headache mentally due to the landlord and Broker the problems this building has is unbelievable mold growing in the walls and the ceiling I have rat feces right in front of my door the exhaust fan in the bathroom blows in and mold in the ceiling and walls as well saw my physician I am being treated for mold. HORRIBLE"
"The smell of a dead rat in the building was absolutely awful. It started on Thursday, and by Friday it was even worse. Residents had to deal with that horrible smell for two days before management finally sent a cleaning crew on Saturday to clean the common areas, it was a completely gross experience. This isn't just about an unpleasant smell, it's a sanitation and health issue. No one should have…"
"The primary contact at Monday Morning Mgmt/Derby Sloped is Sophia -- she is literally the least pleasant person I've ever interacted with in my life. We loved the convenience of the location and charm of the apartment, but they just gutted all of them so no more charm. It's LOUD -- right across from police and fire stations and one of the busiest intersections in Brooklyn. The heat and hot water w…"
"Old building that was NOT maintained when I lived there. Terrible management, too. John J Dito & Son were a pain in my behind."
"I’m the apt 17 that had ceilings collapse lead mold mice broken refrigerators . It was a nightmare I finally left and went South. I give it zero stars the landlord Michael does nothing the building is worst then ever ."
"The new residential manager and property management team has been working hard on addressing past issues with resident clutter. There is new flooring, mailboxes, security systems since 2026"
