Non-primary residence investigations — New York City

When primary-residence questions matter under rent regulation or lease terms, we help gather lawful facts for owners and counsel—without promising a court result.

Request a scoped engagement

What is a non-primary residence investigation here?

It is a scoped occupancy inquiry: public-record research, lawful observation where authorized, and documentation of facts that counsel can review when primary residence is at issue. Courts—not investigators—decide legal outcomes. We do not claim apartment-level rent-stabilization status from a building list alone.

How does this relate to the building lookup tool?

The lookup only shows buildings that public RGB/HCR lists flag as containing at least one rent-stabilized unit. That is a starting point for engagement, not proof about a specific tenant or apartment. Unit-level status requires HCR processes and counsel guidance.

Engagement principles

  • Written scope with counsel or management before fieldwork
  • Facts oriented to review—not guaranteed eviction or rent-roll outcomes
  • Clear separation from FCRA tenant screening on People Vetting

What this is not

Not legal advice. Not a determination that any apartment is or is not rent stabilized. Not a consumer report. Not illegal surveillance or unauthorized entry.
