Bronx owners register regulated rents through HCR’s owner route
Bronx building owners with rent-regulated units should use HCR’s rent-registration materials and owner services instead of informal spreadsheets.

A Bronx owner with rent-regulated apartments needs an HCR record, not just a private rent roll. HCR has rent-registration information and online services for owners and managers. Start there for annual registration. Check that the building and units are registered. Also check who has portal access and whether new management received the right records.
Registration problems can later show up in rent-history disputes. Tenants can use the HCR route to identify where the official registration record begins.
Keep the building address, unit records, annual filing confirmation, and portal details together. When management changes, confirm who controls the HCR account. Do that before the next filing or rent-record question.
