Rent Safer in NYC

We have comprehensive reports on almost every New York City building with 2 or more units. We don't cover single family home rentals for privacy reasons–while these should still be registered with HPD, it isn't possible to tell whether they are owner-occupied or being used as rentals.

Bad landlords hiding behind anonymous shell companies, "business center" mailboxes, and even providing fake information to tenants are all too common. Use our ownership reporting to find who really owns and manages an NYC building–and which other properties they are publicly linked to.

For years, commercial real estate investors have used data providers like CoreLogic, PropertyShark and SiteCompli to research buildings before investing. Now, Augrented puts the same deep "due diligence" tools in the hands of every NYC tenant!

Ever noticed how most reviews of apartment buildings are either one- or five-star? Only a tiny percentage of tenants actually leave reviews on Yelp! or ApartmentRatings, and they're usually from people who either had a bad experience or were persuaded to leave a good review by the landlord! Augrented covers every building, including smaller ones which rarely have tenant reviews on other sites.

When you're looking for a new apartment, you care about what's going to happen, not what happened in the past. Our unique Renter Risk Ratings use advanced Machine Learning technology to predict how likely it is that a building's units will have maintenance issues resulting in a code violation.

With Augrented, it's free to research any rental buildings–and you can view as many reports as you like!
