Stories about the New York rental market are legendary, but New York tenants know that tales of dishonest real estate agents, rent-gouging landlords and rodent-infested housing can be all too true. Where can you turn for help?
Written by an experienced New York landlord-tenant attorney, New York Tenants' Rights provides the answers to rental problems in one comprehensive book. The book guides you through legal quagmires and solutions as you encounter them, step by step. You'll find plain-English solutions to problems involving:
signing a lease or rental agreement
repairs and services
discrimination, harassment or retaliation
privacy invasions
problem roommates
noisy neighbors
subletting your place
mold and lead paint hazards
ending your lease
getting your security deposit returned
terminations, rent defaults and evictions
and much more
New York Tenants' Rights covers the extensive rules and regulations of New York City as well as the rest of the state. It also provides instructions for preparing dozens of essential legal forms and letters, including a rent overcharge complaint, tenant answers to eviction proceedings, apartment inspection checklist and noise complaint letter.
