Questions about 395 Schenectady Avenue

Who owns 395 Schenectady Avenue?

The city's property file lists 395 SCHENECTADY, LLC as the owner of record for 395 Schenectady 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 395 Schenectady Avenue changed hands recently?

No deed for 395 Schenectady Avenue appears in the ACRIS records PulseCities holds. That means no transfer has been published for this lot in the current window, not that the building has never been sold.

Have there been evictions at 395 Schenectady Avenue?

Yes. One marshal-executed eviction at 395 Schenectady Avenue appears in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Feb 18, 2025. 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 395 Schenectady Avenue rent stabilized?

DHCR registrations list 12 stabilized units at this building in 2023. Registration is building-level, so it does not settle whether one apartment is stabilized. The free rent history from NYS Homes and Community Renewal does.

Has anyone won a rent overcharge case at 395 Schenectady 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 395 Schenectady Avenue assessed at for property taxes?

The Department of Finance assessed the lot at $348K 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 395 Schenectady Avenue?

11213 (Crown Heights) scores 47.7 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.
