THE PATTERN

The lowest violation rate we track.

At 0.6 Class C violations per building, Brown Harris Stevens has the lowest violation rate of any firm in our dataset. As the HPD managing agent of record for 182 buildings carrying 104 total Class C violations all-time, only 35 of those buildings have ever logged a single Class C condition. A low rate does not mean good — it means less bad, in an industry with no standard. But on the numbers we can measure, this is the cleanest portfolio we profile.
