🚫 Vacate Orders, Solved: Full Restoration of Occupancy & Compliance Clearance
A Vacate Order is issued when a building or dwelling is deemed unsafe for occupancy.
It may come from the Department of Buildings (DOB), Fire Department, or Code Compliance Office after an inspection finds structural hazards, unsafe living conditions, or fire risks.
Once issued, occupants must leave immediately — and owners are responsible for addressing all violations before re-occupancy is allowed.
🚨 What a Vacate Order Means
- All residents and tenants must leave the property immediately
- The property cannot be rented, occupied, or used until the order is officially lifted
- Tenants may be placed in shelters or temporary housing by city agencies
- The building may be marked with a red “VACATE” notice or red-core tag
- Emergency access may be restricted until hazards are corrected
Our goal: to coordinate the full restoration of your property and rescind the Vacate Order — quickly, legally, and safely.
🧰 How We Help
- Review the Vacate Order and identify all violations and related agency filings
- Coordinate with licensed architects, engineers, and contractors to prepare required reports and drawings
- Schedule and oversee administrative inspections with city officials
- Submit Certificates of Correction and required affidavits
- Work directly with the Commissioner or agency that imposed the order to request formal rescission
Ongoing support: we guide homeowners through every step of restoration — from temporary stabilization and emergency permits to the final compliance inspection and reopening of the property.
💡 Homeowner Responsibilities
- Maintain property insurance and safety at all times during closure
- Do not re-enter or occupy the property until the order is lifted
- Cooperate with city agencies for follow-up inspections
- Hire only licensed professionals for required work
- Keep records of all communications, permits, and inspection results
💼 How We Lift (Rescind) the Vacate Order
Once unsafe conditions are corrected, we coordinate a formal review with the issuing agency.
Our team manages all communication with the **Commissioner’s Office**, ensuring the agency receives complete proof of compliance, inspection reports, and photos verifying the property is safe for occupancy.
We prepare and file the **Rescind Request** package to officially lift the order and restore access.
🕐 Why Act Immediately
A Vacate Order doesn’t just restrict access — it freezes income, complicates insurance claims, and can lead to additional penalties for noncompliance. Acting quickly allows you to regain control, reoccupy your property, and restore normal operations safely.
