NYC property research

NYC property due diligence, without the public-record data hunt.

Search a New York City property to bring permits, violations, complaints, zoning, and ownership records into one evidence-backed workspace — with source status and retrieval time on every record, not just a summary.

Free identity lookup · no account · one bounded NYC GeoSearch request

No credit card required. 3 free property searches every 24 hours, 20 per rolling 30 days.

What LotContext is

A research tool that assembles public NYC records into one evidence-backed view of a property — not a title report, and not legal or compliance advice.

Where it works today

New York City properties, across all five boroughs, sourced from NYC Open Data, GeoSearch, and other public NYC datasets. See the full list of sources .

What you get

A private workspace per property: permits, violations, complaints, zoning, ownership, map context, and a source-status timeline you can revisit, save, and share.

How it works

  1. 1 Create a free account and enter an NYC property address.
  2. 2 LotContext resolves the address and gathers records from each public source.
  3. 3 Review the evidence-backed report, with clear status for anything partial or unavailable.

Records may be stale, incomplete, duplicated, or ambiguous. LotContext is not affiliated with the City of New York and does not provide legal, compliance, or professional advice. See the disclaimer.
