Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the real property law, in relation to prohibiting landlords, lessors, sub-lessors and grantors from demanding brokers' fees from a tenant
AI Summary
This bill amends the Real Property Law to prohibit landlords, lessors, sub-lessors, and grantors from demanding broker's fees from a tenant. The bill specifically states that, except in instances where statutes or regulations provide for a payment, fee, or charge, no landlord, lessor, sub-lessor, or grantor may demand any payment, fee, or charge, including but not limited to broker's fees, before or at the beginning of the tenancy. This change aims to protect tenants from being required to pay additional fees when renting a property.
