BRICKS

BRICKS appears in the NYC deed record as 35 separate limited liability companies, holding 15 buildings between them and having sold 24 more. The deeds run from April 22, 2025 to September 18, 2026. They sit in 10 ZIP codes. Stated consideration across the priced deeds totals $16.6M. That is fewer buildings than companies, which is what a portfolio being sold down looks like. Deeds recorded through September 29, 2026, the most recent day the city has published.

What the buildings carry

No building in this portfolio carries an executed marshal eviction in the citywide record. Four buildings have unresolved HPD or DOB violations on file. 82 residential units are recorded across the portfolio in the city's tax lot file, and 99 HPD and DOB violations are unresolved.

Who was on the other side

One of these deeds moves a building from one BRICKS company to another rather than to an outside buyer. That is a restructuring, not a sale, and it usually states no price. On the rest, the record names Townhouse Rental II LLC, Ahmed Farah D, Awad Alaa.

How the record links these companies

Two independent things in the public record have to agree before BRICKS is treated as one group: a shared naming pattern across numbered siblings, and a shared mailing address on the deed filings. One signal alone is not enough, and roughly seven in ten shared-address groups fail the test and appear nowhere on this site. This is a documented link, not a finding about ownership. The deeds say these companies share a name and a mailing address. They do not say who controls them. The full method, and the other networks.

Common questions

Who is BRICKS?

BRICKS is the name shared by 35 limited liability companies that appear as parties in the NYC deed record, holding 15 buildings between them. The deed record shows the shared name and the shared filing address; it does not name the people behind the companies.

How many NYC buildings does BRICKS own?

15 buildings across 35 companies, counted from deeds filed with the city. It has also sold 24. Condominium unit deeds are collapsed to the building they sit in, so a whole-condo purchase does not read as a portfolio.

Why is BRICKS split across so many companies?

Holding each building in its own limited liability company is standard practice in New York: it separates liability between buildings, simplifies financing and makes a later sale cleaner. The side effect is that one owner appears in the public record as many unrelated names, which is what this page undoes.

A deed names the buyer of record. It says nothing about how a building is run. How PulseCities reads the record
