Questions about 1540 Van Siclen Avenue

Who owns 1540 Van Siclen Avenue?

Has 1540 Van Siclen Avenue changed hands recently?

No deed for 1540 Van Siclen 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 1540 Van Siclen Avenue?

Yes. 14 marshal-executed evictions at 1540 Van Siclen Avenue appear in the NYC evictions dataset, the most recent on Jul 8, 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 1540 Van Siclen Avenue rent stabilized?

No DHCR registration for 1540 Van Siclen 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 the displacement risk around 1540 Van Siclen Avenue?

11239 (East New York) scores 11.4 out of 100 on the PulseCities displacement index. The score reads five ZIP-level signals: eviction rate, LLC acquisition rate, permit intensity, assessment spikes, and 311 complaint volume. It describes the area around the building, not the building itself.

Sourced from NYC public records: ACRIS deeds, DOB permits, the NYC evictions dataset, and 311. Records reflect what agencies have published and can lag events.
