Recorded deeds

Deeds recorded with ACRIS (NYC Department of Finance), newest first: the recorded date, the parties named on the document, the document type, and the amount when the record states one. A recorded document, and a name on it, is a public record, not a conclusion of current title, and what a party is depends on the document type. The registration contact above is a contact, not proof of ownership.

What the records do and do not establish

HPD registrations for 7 buildings list a contact named ROBERT YAKUBOV.

OFFICIAL RECORD VERIFIED

ROBERT YAKUBOV personally owns these buildings.

UNVERIFIED NOT ESTABLISHED

Across the tier-1 buildings HPD has recorded 1,509 violations (all years).

OFFICIAL RECORD VERIFIED

530 of those were issued on/after the current registered owner's recorded acquisition date.

INFERENCE VERIFIED

13 HPD violations are open as of 2026-09-29.

OFFICIAL RECORD VERIFIED

The '1,500 violations' figure.

THIRD-PARTY CLAIM SUPPORTED UNDER A SPECIFIC DEFINITION

Violations reflect intentional neglect, harassment or criminal conduct.

UNVERIFIED NOT ESTABLISHED

DOB job applications for 5 of the tier-1 buildings name ROBERT YAKUBOV as owner (filer-stated), including filings for the LLC that held 525 Tinton Ave before its current owner.

OFFICIAL RECORD VERIFIED

A name on a registration or permit filing is not legal proof of beneficial ownership or control of the LLCs, and nothing in these records establishes intent. Many violations predate the current owners. Corrections to any record go through the city agency that holds it (see About).
