Good Cause Eviction
Croton-on-Hudson is considering passage of “Good Cause Eviction” legislation, which would restrict the ability of a landlord to evict a tenant, even in cases where their lease has expired so long as the tenant continued to pay rent. The bill (Local Law Introductory No. 15 of 2024) would also effectively cap annual rent increases to 3% or 1.5 times the CPI for most rental properties statewide with four units or more, unless the landlord is able to prove before a judge that an increase above that threshold is necessary or reasonable.
Urge your local lawmakers to oppose “Good Cause Eviction” legislation by filling out the petition here. This petition is part of HGAR’s coalition efforts to oppose “Good Cause Eviction” as we partner with other real estate and business groups across the state.
“Good Cause Eviction” would simply make it less affordable to provide rental housing, severely discourage real estate investment, and ultimately drive-up rents for tenants. Thank you for making your voice heard on this important issue.
