242 Malden Place

Staten Island, NY 10306 BBL 5040000039 2 units · 2 floors · 1950

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

avg 0.1
5
Fewer violations More violations

This building has 5 recorded HPD violations, above the Oakwood average of 0.1.

The bar and the rating point different ways because they measure different things: the bar counts HPD violations already on file, the rating forecasts the next 12 months.

Rent & eviction protection

Good Cause Eviction

Is 242 Malden Place covered by Good Cause Eviction?

New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.

Likely not covered. This building appears to be exempt from Good Cause Eviction for the reason below.
  • Small landlord. This landlord owns about 6 units across 3 buildings in our records — at or below the 10-unit small-landlord threshold.

Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.

How we score buildings

How 242 Malden Place's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of city inspection data — HPD violation filings, tenant complaints, and owner track records across their entire portfolio. It estimates the probability that HPD inspectors will find serious or dangerous violations at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.
