Tenant Habitability
Under New York law, in every written or oral lease agreement for residential rental properties is a promise and a warranty by the landlord that the premises leased are fit for human habitation and that there are no conditions on the premises that are dangerous to the tenant’s life, health or safety. The landlord is responsible to keep this promise and warrant of habitability throughout the duration of the lease agreement except in situations where the tenant’s misconduct causes the breach. If the landlord is at fault, the tenant can commence a legal action against the landlord.
