    Worth checking · AI-assistedⓘ
    Turn on the heat and let it run for a minute, then feel the radiator or baseboard to check whether it gets warm. Look at stairwells, hallways, and emergency exits to see whether they are clear and accessible.
    details ▸

    Deadlines vary by condition: immediate for heat and hot water, 14 days for self-closing doors, 21 days for lead paint, window guards, mold, and mice, cockroaches or rats, and 24 hours for everything else. They run from the date the owner is served, and mark when civil penalties can be sought in Housing Court. They are not a promise the condition is fixed by then. If the owner does not fix it, HPD can send its own contractor and bill them.

  • NYC HPD, Penalties and Fees
  • Pests reported in the last five years.
    Worth checking · AI-assistedⓘ
    Look along baseboards, in corners, and behind appliances for droppings, dead insects, or signs of active pest activity.
    details ▸

    Roaches, mice, and rats can be hazards for people with respiratory conditions such as asthma. Bedbugs spread between apartments through small cracks in walls and floors, so catching them early matters.

    Report pests to the owner and call 311 if they are not dealt with. For bedbugs, an HPD inspector visits, and a violation is issued only if they can visually confirm live bedbugs.

    • ABCs of Housing
  • Mold reported in the last five years.
    Worth checking · AI-assistedⓘ
    Check corners, windowsills, and under sinks for discoloration, soft spots, or odor that might suggest mold.
    details ▸

    Mold can cause allergic reactions and irritation, and can trigger asthma in some people. It needs moisture to grow, so it generally indicates a leak or persistent damp.

    Report mold to the owner, who is expected to inspect annually and to respond to complaints, and call 311 if it is not addressed.
