FAQ
The tenant must first attempt to secure the voluntary consent of the landlord to terminate the lease, and if the request is de- nied, a court may order termination as long as all payments due under the lease through the termination date of the lease have been paid (Real Property Law § 227-c).
Discrimination is a big deal in NYC law, and landlords cannot turn people away based on race, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender, or creed. You must talk to a lawyer if you believe you are a victim of discrimination. Without a written court order, they cannot force you to leave your home.
A new tenant can't back out of the lease after signing it without paying a penalty. The only exception to this rule is when the tenant uses a valid reason. In periodic leases, the tenant must provide written notice to their landlord before leaving, ing to what New York law states.
Many conditions let you get out of the lease without penalty. If a property is not fit for living. If a landlord violates rules of entry or harasses renters. If a tenant is an active military duty member. If a tenant faces domestic violence in the property. If the apartment is illegal.
A Notice of Termination is given to a tenant to end the tenancy. The notice tells the tenant the reason, the date that the tenant must move, and that a case will be started if the tenant doesn't move by the deadline. Give the tenant at least 30 days notice to leave.
A lease is a binding legal contract, and your landlord has no obligation to let you break it. Even if you may think it's in your landlord's best interest to let you out of the lease, that likely won't happen. However, breaking a lease in NYC is still possible, even if your landlord doesn't want to let you out of it.
Termination date: The law says, the termination date must be effective no earlier than thirty days after the date on which the next rental payment is due (after the notice is delivered). The notice is considered delivered five days after mailing.
The most common way to end a lease is by providing the notice required in a Lease Agreement or by state or local law. Tenants use a Tenant Notice of Intent to Move, while landlords use a Landlord's Notice of Non-Renewal.
