Residing in a rent-stabilized apartment is a privilege for most people in New York City. Living in one of the millions of the city’s stabilized apartments brings renters peace of mind in two major ways: rental increase rates are regulated by the Rent Guidelines Board, DHCR and the landlord is required to provide lease renewals to all rent-stabilized apartments. However, there are times when landlords may want to offer tenants a lease buyout to give up the stabilized apartment in exchange for consideration in order for landlords to de-regulate the apartment and raise its rent to a much higher, fair-market rent.The elusive peace of mind as renter is then compromised by the landlord’sinterests, and in some situations, landlords even useunscrupulous tactics to unlawfully evict a protected tenant.Metro Tenant Advisors is comprised ofconsultants who will negotiate on your behalf and make sure that you get the maximum buyout for breaking your rent-stabilized or rent-controlled tenancy.
