Questions about 839 Franklin Avenue
Who owns 839 Franklin Avenue?
The city's property file lists ZN KAFIF REALTY LLC as the owner of record for 839 Franklin 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 839 Franklin Avenue changed hands recently?

Have there been evictions at 839 Franklin Avenue?
Yes. One marshal-executed eviction at 839 Franklin Avenue appears in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Aug 31, 2026. The dataset covers executed evictions only, so it undercounts housing court activity: cases that settle or end in a move-out never reach a marshal.
Is 839 Franklin Avenue rent stabilized?
No DHCR registration for 839 Franklin Avenue appears in the years PulseCities holds. That is a gap in the registration record rather than an answer about any apartment, and the free rent history from NYS Homes and Community Renewal is what settles it.
What is 839 Franklin Avenue assessed at for property taxes?
The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $860K 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 839 Franklin Avenue?
11225 (Crown Heights) scores 43.4 out of 100 on the PulseCities displacement index. The score reads five ZIP-level signals: LLC acquisition rate, permit intensity, 311 complaint volume, executed evictions, and serious HPD violations. It describes the area around the building, not the building itself.
