A reader sent us the following question:
Could you please tell me what is the 2007 rent increase for an apartment that is not rent control or rent stabilized for 1 year?
Thank you. Jose M.
There are currently no "caps" or limits applied to fair-market leases. In other words, outside of rent regulation, a landlord can usually charge whatever the market will bear.
While some landlords who own free-market rental buildings will track the stabilization guideline increases, there is no requirement that they do so.
For the latest guidelines and rent-increase methods applicable to regulated units, please use this link: DHCR Publications
Thanks for visiting us.
Onward!
