FAQ
For example, your landlord must fix issues like: Peeling paint. Leaks in the ceiling. Broken sink, oven, or stove. Roaches, mice or bedbugs. Broken or non-closing windows. No heat or hot water.
Owner Not to Discriminate The owner may refuse to rent to anyone; however, that refusal cannot be based on race, age, religion, gender, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or because the tenant has children or in some jurisdictions, because of occupation or source of income.
If a renter signs a two-year lease, the landlord can bump the increase to 2.75% for the first year and 3.20% for the second year. In New York, non-stabilized leases mean landlords can raise rent without limits. If it's a 5% or more hike though, tenants must have a heads-up through a written notice.
You may refuse entry to a landlord if they do not give proper notice for a visit, or if they try to enter for any reason beyond the five valid ones listed below. These rights cannot be waived — they still apply if your lease says otherwise, or if you don't have a lease.
Under New York real property law, a tenants' association is any organization of two or more people who band together and call themselves one. There is no formal incorporation or any other process necessary. It simply starts with talking to your neighbors and deciding to band together, rather than fight as individuals.
Landlords may not take the law into their own hands and evict a tenant by use of force or unlawful means. For example, a landlord cannot use threats of violence, remove a tenant's possessions, lock the tenant out of the apartment, or willfully discontinue essential services such as water or heat.
Under New York State's Rent Regulation Laws, harassment is defined as conduct by a landlord that directly or indirectly interferes with, or is intended to interfere with, your privacy, comfort, and enjoyment of your dwelling.
If you sell your property, your tenant still has the right to live in the house under the original lease terms. The tenant should receive waivers or complimentary amenities as in the actual lease terms even after a new landlord takes over. This should happen until the lease term ends.
For a one-year lease commencing on or after October 1, 2024 and on or before September 30, 2025: 2.75% For a two-year lease commencing on or after October 1, 2024 and on or before September 30, 2025: 5.25%
What are the responsibilities of my landlord? Owners must ensure that buildings are safe, clean and well maintained, in both common areas and in individual apartments. Among other responsibilities, owners must provide and maintain security measures, heat, hot and cold water, and good lighting.
