Typical alert latency

★★★★★

"We had an HPD Class C hit on a Crown Heights walk-up at 3am. Super had it fixed by 7am. I've never seen a complaint closed before the inspector even opened it."

MR

Margot Reyes

Property Manager · 340-unit portfolio

★★★★★

"I was paying an expediter $1,200 a month to run manual BIS checks. ViolationWatch replaced all of it and caught two DOB violations in the first week."

JT

James Trieger

Owner · Midtown East

★★★★★

"OATH dockets are brutal. The calendar alone is worth it — we haven't defaulted on a hearing in 14 months since moving over."

— Common questions

Quick answers.

How fast do alerts arrive?
For DOB and HPD, our detection engine re-scans signals every few minutes. Most new violations reach your inbox within 10–20 minutes of first appearing in any source.
Which agencies does ViolationWatch monitor?
Ten: DOB, HPD, ECB, OATH, FDNY, 311, DEP, DOH, PRM, and DOT. Every signal converges into one unified feed per building.
Do I need any technical setup?
No. Add your address, pick your recipients, and you are monitoring. No API key, no code, no configuration. Setup takes under 60 seconds.
Can I monitor an entire portfolio?
Yes. Portfolio plans (10+ buildings) include bulk address import, dedicated account management, SSO, white-labeled reports, and a 99.99% SLA.
What is the difference between a complaint and a violation?
A complaint is the initial report — usually filed via 311. A violation is the formal finding. ViolationWatch surfaces both — the complaint alert gives you a head start before it becomes a violation.
Does it cover local laws like LL97 and LL11?
Yes — through Local Law Tracker, our $59.99/year add-on. AI analysis on PLUTO + DOB data figures out exactly which NYC local laws apply to each property — LL11, LL97, LL84, LL87, LL126, LL152, LL31 and more — and tracks every deadline, penalty, and reminder. Activate it on top of any monitoring plan.
Is ViolationWatch affiliated with NYC?
No. ViolationWatch is a private, independent company. We are not a government service.
