I have lived in my current apartment for over 2 years with my current least ending on */*/*. I already signed my lease a few weeks ago and was awaiting the landlord's signature. Today, I received an email stating that my lease was sent in error and will be rescinded and that I have to vacate the unit by the end of the lease. I read that the landlord has to give me 90 days notice being that i have resided in the apartment for more than 2 years and he is not giving me sufficient notice. What can I do in this situation?
Hi ****, in New York, landlords must provide written notice if they don't intend to renew a lease. The timeline is:
- More than 1 year but less than 2 years: 60 days' notice.
- More than 2 years: 90 days' notice.
Since you have lived over 2 years, your landlord should give you a 90 days' notice.
Great, thank you so much
