New York allows tenants to refuse viewings at any time, including during the leases final month. Landlord entry for the purpose of showing the property requires the tenants explicit consent. Without it, the landlord must obtain a court order to legally conduct viewings.
Tenants have the right to privacy in their rented homes and can refuse entry to landlords who do not provide proper notice or have an illegitimate reason for entry. If this right is violated, tenants can take legal action to prevent continued violations and potentially seek damages.
If a tenant is out of the rental apartment for a couple of days, their pets still need care, plants need watering, and all belongings need security. For these types of scenarios, landlords should allow their tenants to share keys with someone else whom they trust.
If you pay rent by check, you may also request a receipt. You only have to ask once. After that, your landlord has to give you a receipt every month. Your landlord must keep proof of cash rent receipts for 3 years.
Tenants Rights and Responsibilities. In New York City, tenants have many rights relating to the safety and quality of their housing.
