Based on public NYC records. Not legal advice — verify with the DHCR (Division of Housing and Community Renewal) at apps.hcr.ny.gov.
Is 899 Westchester Avenue covered by Good Cause Eviction?
New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.
- New construction. Built in 2014. Good Cause protections don't apply until 2044 (30 years after construction).
Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.
