A three-family house coming off long-term family ownership, where street-level friction outpaces building filings.

Long-term estate ownership shifted to an LLC in 2022. The house traded from an estate executor to an LLC in March 2022 after remaining in the same family since at least 1989. With no active tenant-facing code filings, assessing furnace age, roof status, and plumbing upgrade timing falls entirely on direct inspection.
