What to expect from an ideal product
- ViolationWatch sends instant alerts the moment a DOB violation is filed against any of your NYC properties, so you find out before a tenant, buyer, or city inspector does.
- Add multiple addresses to one dashboard and monitor DOB, HPD, FDNY, and 311 complaints across your entire portfolio without logging into city portals manually.
- Alerts go straight to your phone or inbox, giving landlords and property managers enough lead time to hire a contractor, respond to the violation, and avoid escalating fines.
- Missing a DOB notice can trigger stop-work orders or civil penalties that compound fast. ViolationWatch closes that gap by removing the manual lookup step entirely.
- Built specifically for NYC property workflows, the platform tracks all four major violation sources in one place, making it practical for owners managing anywhere from two units to dozens of buildings.
