New York Landlord-Tenant Law provides a strong foundation in residential commercial landlord and tenant, and housing law. This 1-volume portable publication brings together all the laws and regulations governing landlord/tenant matters in New York, providing the text of state statutes, regulations, and local laws. Annotated here are complete provisions of the main New York State legislation: RPL, RPAPL, MDL, Lien Law, RPTL, CPLR and GBL. Also included are: (i) select local laws from New York City, Albany, and Rochester; (ii) rent stabilization and rent control laws and regulations; (iii) Cooperative conversion regulations; (iv) select federal statutes and acts; and (v) excerpts from court acts and rules.

This Tanbook continues to be an essential resource that covers the fundamentals of both residential and commercial landlord-tenant law and the procedural mechanics in these landlord-tenant summary proceedings and real property disputes. This treatise offers practical guidance on tenancy, summary proceedings, nonpayment proceedings, illegal lockout/unlawful eviction actions and proceedings, and general and affirmative defenses to a residential landlord-tenant summary proceeding. This clear and accessible treatise introduces both the attorney as well as other interested parties to the fundamentals of both residential and commercial landlord and tenant law by considering the nature of the tenancy and the relationship between the parties. It examines the main elements of the commercial property lease, including: rent, repair, alienation, termination and statutory renewal. The main statutes concerning residential tenancy are also considered, including: assured and assured shorthold tenancies, security deposits, Rent Act tenancies (i.e. rent control and rent stabilization laws), long leasehold enfranchisement, summary proceedings (non-payment and holdover proceedings), etc.
