Does deregistering from HPD clear old violations?
I hight doubt removing from registration would erase violations as they’re tied to the property not the registration.
They only way I’ve had violations removed was by certifying fix.

Pretty much the title. We own a two-family and are occupying one of the units, so afaik we are considered a “private dwelling” and do not need to register with the HPD. However, the property has an open HPD violation (window guards) from before we bought it (outside of the self-certification window). The violation is no longer applicable. While I could go through the process of requesting a dismissal inspection or a reissuance, I was wondering if deregistering (which I’m considering anyway) would also clear or nullify the open violation. Does anyone know?
And are there other downsides to deregistering that I should be aware of? We will be renting the garden level unit. Thanks!

I have not needed to do this in quite a few years.
The last time I needed too, I got a certified copy of the new Certificate of occupancy, a copy of the said violation & went out to the office on Euclid Ave in East NY. Waite in line to see a man who would listen to my needs, take the papers & within a few days it would be cleared off the records & HPD records would show it as a 2 family….
I am not sure if the walk in office is still an option on Euclid Ave or if they have humans even available…. Not really a big deal though, any title company that are familiar with Brooklyn, would not make anything of a historic “violation” from before the new C of O.
