If You Live In These Tax-Subsidized Buildings, You Are Entitled to a Rent Freeze

By Cezary Podkul, ProPublica, Oct. 20, 2016

Landlords who collect property tax breaks under New York City's single-largest housing subsidy, the $1.4 billion-a-year 421-a program, are required to provide tenants with rent-stabilized leases. These leases limit rent increases to city-set limits, such as the rent freeze announced in June. Often, the city’s Finance Department gives out the tax benefit without an approved application on file showing that the landlord has met all the requirements of the program, including rent stabilization.

Search for your building to see if your landlord has been approved for the program and registered your building for rent stabilization, as required by law. If not, you may be paying more than you should.
