Violations, Open Permits & Compliance
Clearing building violations, open permits and compliance orders across Long Island and NYC.
Violations and open permits attach to the property, not the person who created them. They surface at sale, at refinance, at insurance renewal, or when somebody files a complaint. Clearing them means finding what the municipality actually has on file, correcting the underlying condition where one exists, and filing the documentation that closes the record.
Scope
- Municipal record and open permit research
- Building department violation resolution
- OATH / ECB and DOB violation compliance (NYC)
- Town and village violation resolution (Nassau & Suffolk)

Common questions
How do I find out if my property has open permits?
The municipal record shows it. Pulling and reading that record is the first step on any resolution.
I am closing in three weeks. Is that enough time?
Sometimes. It depends on the issue and the municipality. Call early rather than late — options narrow as the date approaches.
