HPD conducted an analysis of NYC residential properties to understand the impact of the proposed eligibility and selection criteria for the TPT program.

  • Out of 770,000 Class 1 and Class 2 residential properties, 80% have no outstanding municipal charges or recent hazardous violations
  • About 20,000 properties meet the minimum criteria for eligibility
  • The top 500 properties in the analysis have an average of $1 million per property in tax and water arrears
  • These properties also average 16 B and C violations per unit
  • Nearly 40% of the properties in a potential TPT round would also be in enhanced enforcement programs like 7A and AEP

However, HPD recommends that the number of properties included in TPT rounds and the frequency of these rounds be determined by HPD rather than statute.
0:19:38
There are about 770,000 Class 1 And Class 2 Residential Properties, excluding condos in New York City.
0:19:48
As shown on Slide 3, Good to bounce.
0:20:04
Is it stuck?
0:20:06
Okay.
0:20:06
Alright.
0:20:09
80% of residential properties do not owe property tax or water sewer charges and did not have any hazardous violations issued between 20202023.
0:20:21
That remain open.
0:20:23
Slide 4 shows the frequency and level of arrears and violations for residential properties.
0:20:30
Of the 770,000
Pierina Ana Sanchez
0:20:32
properties, a property.
0:20:34
Are we looking at the right slide?
Kim Darga
0:20:36
Yeah.
0:20:36
Okay.
0:20:37
If you could go back 1 for a second, so just gonna pause.
0:20:42
This is showing the distribution of the 770,000 properties.
0:20:47
You can see in the green that is represents the 80% of those properties that have no outstanding municipal charges and no recent hazardous and immediately hazardous violations.
0:21:01
So we can keep going to the next slide.
0:21:04
So this is slide 4, showing the 770,000 properties, and then you can see the breakdown of those that have arrears.
0:21:14
And then meet the minimum eligibility criteria discussed by the working group and included in the proposed legislation.
0:21:21
And then the top bit of that pyramid is the 500 top 500 for arrears Immunis pull sorry, municipal charges and violations.
0:21:30
That is the analytical sample we'll be talking about.
0:21:34
Okay.
0:21:35
So of the 770,000 properties, approximately 16% of property tax and water arrears to the tune of $2,100,000,000.
0:21:46
5% have B and C housing violations issued between 20202023 that remain open.
0:21:56
2.6%, about 20,000 properties meet the minimum criteria for eligibility.
0:22:03
That is, again, the 1 or 3 years of the property's own tax debt depending on property type.
0:22:11
Based on current conditions and an analytical sample of 500 properties in the this balance model would include properties with the following characteristics.
0:22:22
So based on the TPT analytical sample, The properties included in the program would have approximately $492,000,000 in DoF and DParrears, representing about a quarter of all arrears among the relevant class 1 and class 2 properties.
0:22:40
Okay.
0:22:40
Let's move to slide 5.
0:22:44
As shown on slide 5, properties have an average of $81,000 per unit and an average of $1,000,000 per property in the in property tax and water arrears.
0:22:56
Let's advance the next slide.
0:22:59
On the housing quality index, properties have 27,000,000 in emergency repair charges and 54,000 B and C housing code violations issued between 20202023 that are still open, representing over 10% of all such violations among the relevant class 1 and class 2 properties.
0:23:21
Advance to slide 6.
0:23:24
As shown on slide 6 properties with an average of 16 B and C violations per unit, an average of 109 B violations per unit.
0:23:33
And on slide 7, we show the size of the round could be less than 500 properties and be effective at capturing.
0:23:43
We can go back one slide.
0:23:44
Sorry.
0:23:45
There we go.
0:23:47
Less than 500 properties and be effective at capturing buildings with high amounts of municipal debt along with housing code violations, reflecting a cohort for selection with both higher municipal debt and physical distress than in the last round of TPT.
0:24:03
The final slide, the advance, shows that the balanced model captures buildings that are included in HPD's enhanced enforcement programs such as 7A and AEP.
0:24:15
If a TPT round were commenced today, nearly 40% of the properties in the round would also be an in enhanced enforcement programs.
