Lessia's List, the rental search that checks the building first

lessiaslist.com Observed source
Editorial interest 87/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A NYC rental search tool that screens buildings against public records for hazards, pests, noise, evictions, landlord litigation, registration, transit, and price.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-25 issue.

Field notes

The screening model combines building records with contextual measurements rather than reducing an address to a single neighborhood score. It separates active rat signs from routine inspection passes, distinguishes pest types, weighs violations and evictions against unit counts, and disqualifies active vacate orders. The homepage reports 419 buildings on file, including 149 that passed every check and 389 currently hidden from results. Rent estimates may use tax-lot floor area when listings omit square footage.
