Property Monitoring
How scheduled monitoring helps review NYC property changes and freshness notes.
What is Property Monitoring?
Property monitoring is the scheduled tracking of changes, events, and record status for specific properties. Instead of manually checking multiple portals, PropSignal checks supported official NYC records and helps you review important changes.
Key Point: Property monitoring reduces manual checking and shows when supported sources were last checked, even when no new record change is found.
What Gets Monitored?
Supported source categories vary by property and launch stage. Not every BBL has every event type, so record labels and freshness notes should be reviewed before relying on a category.
Regulatory Events
- Supported HPD violations and complaints
- Supported DOB permits and approvals
- Supported environmental or building-code records when available
- Regulatory records tied to a BBL
Financial Events
- Supported tax-lien sale context
- Supported property tax or valuation context
- Supported foreclosure or litigation context when available
- Supported lien or filing records when available
Ownership Events
- Supported property transfer context
- Supported deed recording context
- Supported mortgage filing context
- Supported lien release context
Property Changes
- Supported building permit context
- Supported demolition permit context
- Supported zoning context
- Supported use-change context when available
