Multifamily Requests for Subordination & Consents
Property owners are expected to understand and fulfill the requirements for Property Registration and maintenance, to Clear Violations and Orders (including any DOB or ECB violations or orders), and to understand what Penalties and Fees might apply should an owner fail to meet the requirements of the Housing Maintenance Code and Multiple Dwelling Law. Visit Property Management for more information.
When processing your transaction request, HPD will confirm whether:
- Property Registration is current;
- DHCR Registration is current (if applicable);
- Municipal violations and orders are cleared;
- Municipal balances are current (taxes, water, sewer) and arrears are paid off; and,
- There are any issues regarding the property owner's compliance with a regulatory agreement or other agreement between the property owner and HPD.
Property owners are encouraged to review and address these items prior to submitting a servicing request or provide an explanation for outstanding items. Failure to address these issues may lead to a delay in processing.
