<h1 id="investigating-buildings-and-landlords-in-bushwick">Investigating buildings and landlords in Bushwick</h1>
<p>The <a href="http://www.bushwickcommunitymap.org">Bushwick Community Map</a> is a project designed help organizers and community members better understanding the buildings and landlords in Bushwick. The map is still a work-in-progress and, of course, doesn’t contain all possible housing information that you might want. This docuement provides some more resources for retriving housing data and resarching the real-estate villains in Bushwick.</p>
<h2 id="our-map">Our Map</h2>
<p><a href="http://www.bushwickcommunitymap.org/map/">Here</a> you can find our main map which will show you:</p>
<ul>
<li>FAR</li>
<li>DOB permits</li>
<li>Likely rent-stabilized proprieties</li>
<li>Vacant land</li>
<li>Year the buildings were built.</li>
</ul>
<p>We hope to have evictions and violations there soon.</p>
<h2 id="rent-stabilized-properties">Rent-Stabilized Properties</h2>
<p><a href="http://elephant-bird.net/bushwickrentstabilized/">This map</a> lists all of the rent-stabilized properties derrived from owner registrations with DHCR. The data comes with a few caveats: The rent stabilization data is slightly out-of-date because DHCR hasn’t updated their public information since 2012. The list is not 100% complete, so if determining the status is extremely critical, you will still have to contact DHCR. Additionally, not all the units inside the building are necessarily rent-stabilized.</p>
<p>There is also a <a href="http://elephant-bird.net/bkrentstabilized/">Brooklyn-wide</a> version. </p>
<p>On the map, when you click on a rent-stabilized property you will be see a pop-up with two links to ACRIS (finance and deed information) and DOB (building information and violations).</p>
<h2 id="government-sources">Government sources</h2>
<p>Our maps are compiled from government sources. Sometimes you might want to go to the source.</p>
<h4 id="pluto">PLUTO</h4>
<p>This is a released twice a year from the Department of City Planning. Besides city planning data, it also contains information from other agencies. You can access the data on the <a href="http://www.nyc.gov/html/dcp/html/bytes/applbyte.shtml#pluto">DCP’s website</a>.</p>
<h4 id="acris">ACRIS</h4>
<p>This the way to access data from the Department of Finance. Here you will find deed transactions as well as mortgage information. This is the best way find who owner a building. Very often the owner is listed as a LLC or a company, but ACRIS will allow you to read the entire deed transfer documents, which can provide clues as to who the people are behind the companies.</p>
<p><a href="http://a836-acris.nyc.gov/">Click here to go to ACRIS</a></p>
<h4 id="department-of-buildings">Department of Buildings</h5>
<p>The <a href="http://a810-bisweb.nyc.gov/bisweb/bispi00.jsp">Building information search</a> from the DOB can be a very powerful tool to do research. Here you can look up an individual buildings and find all the complaints, permits, and applications. You can also search by community district.</p>
<h4 id="hpd">HPD</h4>
<p>HPD’s tool, <a href="https://hpdonline.hpdnyc.org/HPDonline/provide_address.aspx">HpdOnline</a>, will allow you to look up active and past HPD complaints and violations on a property. </p>
