Questions about 227 Audubon Avenue

Who owns 227 Audubon Avenue?

The city's property file lists AUDUBON REALTY, as the owner of record for 227 Audubon Avenue. No deed for this lot appears in the ACRIS records PulseCities holds, so that name comes from the tax roll rather than from a recorded transfer.

Has 227 Audubon Avenue changed hands recently?

Have there been evictions at 227 Audubon Avenue?

No executed eviction at 227 Audubon Avenue appears in the NYC evictions dataset, which PulseCities holds from April 2024 forward. Executed evictions are the end of the process, so a building with none may still have active housing court cases.

Is 227 Audubon Avenue rent stabilized?

Has anyone won a rent overcharge case at 227 Audubon Avenue?

Yes. New York State granted 1 rent overcharge case at this address, meaning DHCR found a tenant had been charged above the legal rent. A granted case covers the apartment that brought it rather than the building, and only apartments whose tenants filed appear at all. The figures come from a freedom of information response covering cases closed between January 2021 and April 2026.

What is 227 Audubon Avenue assessed at for property taxes?

The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $1.5M for the 2026 tax year. That is the figure the city taxes rather than a sale price, and the bill depends on the tax class rate and on any exemptions on the lot.

What is the displacement risk around 227 Audubon Avenue?
