Common questions
Which signs should a new owner replace first?
The registration sign, super sign and boiler key notice, since they usually show the old owner or super.
Do open violations transfer to me?
Violations stay with the building, so the new owner corrects and certifies them.
Can you check what the building needs?
Yes. Send us the address and number of units and we will send your list.
