NEW! GOOD CAUSE EVICTION LAW
On April 20, 2024, New York State enacted the Good Cause Eviction Law (GCE), which will protect unregulated tenants from eviction (except for good cause), require lease renewals, and cap rent increases for most (but not all) market rate apartments in New York City. GCE is effective immediately and will apply to all new leases and renewal leases, unless exempted, in New York City.
GCE is effective immediately and will apply to all new leases and renewal leases, unless exempted, in New York City. Here is a link to Legal Aide’s Summary of the new GCE law. Here is a link to City Limits “Good Cause” Rent Calculator, to help you determine if you are covered by the new law.
