Terms of Service

Last updated October 14, 2026

By using findacrib.com ("the Service"), you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service. Questions? Email api@findacrib.com.

What Find A Crib is

Find A Crib is an informational tool that maps NYC rent-stabilized buildings using public government data. We are not a broker, landlord, or real-estate agent, and we do not list, rent, or manage apartments. We do not guarantee that any building has an available unit.

Accuracy of information

Building information — including addresses, unit counts, rent estimates, HPD violations, registered owners, and managing agents — is drawn from public sources (NYC PLUTO, NYC Open Data / HPD, HUD, DHCR) and third-party listing data. It may be incomplete, out of date, or contain errors. Rent estimates are ZIP-code typical ranges from HUD Fair Market Rents and are not a specific building's actual rent. Verify all information independently before making housing decisions. The Service is provided for general information only and is not legal, financial, or housing advice.

Renter tools and AI are not legal advice

Find A Crib is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. The renter tools — including the broker fee check, lease review, repair letters, rent increase check, Know your rights, and Renewal coach — and every AI-written answer, letter, email or summary are general information about New York City and New York State rules. They may be incomplete, out of date, or wrong for your situation, and AI can make mistakes. Using them does not create an attorney-client relationship. Read anything before you send it, and for advice about your situation talk to a licensed attorney, a free legal-services group, or call 311 and ask for the Tenant Helpline.

Accounts

You are responsible for keeping your login credentials secure and for activity under your account. Provide accurate information and keep it current. We may suspend accounts that abuse the Service (for example, automated scraping, or attempts to overload or disrupt the system).

Acceptable use

Comments you post

Signed-in members can comment on a building. You own what you write and you are responsible for it; keep it about the building and keep it true. There is zero tolerance for objectionable content or abusive behaviour. Do not post threats, harassment, slurs, doxxing, another person's private information, advertising, or anything unlawful — including anything that discriminates against a protected class or a voucher holder.

Comments are public: your account name and what you wrote appear on findacrib.com and in the Find A Crib app. You can delete your own at any time. Anyone can report a comment or block a member from inside the app, and we review reports and remove content or accounts, usually within 24 hours. Email api@findacrib.com to report something or to ask us to remove a comment.

Fair housing

Source-of-income discrimination — including refusing tenants with Section 8 or other housing vouchers — is illegal in New York City. Find A Crib surfaces this information to help renters; nothing on the Service should be read to endorse unlawful discrimination.

Intellectual property

The Service's design, original content, and compiled datasets are owned by Find A Crib. Underlying public records remain the property of their respective government sources.

Disclaimers and limitation of liability

The Service is provided "as is," without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Find A Crib is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service or reliance on its information. Our total liability for any claim will not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.

Changes and termination

We may modify or discontinue the Service, or update these terms, at any time. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated terms. We may terminate access for violations of these terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
