Eviction Process In New York: Laws For Landlords & Property Managers

In this video, we'll discuss what landlords need to know when it comes to evicting a tenant in New York.

New York eviction laws may vary from district to district in terms of court procedures and fees. Other than that, they all follow the same general eviction process: Send a clear notice, fill out the forms, serve the tenant, attend the trial, and wait for judgment. No eviction process is the same. One of the factors that affects the entire process is the lease/rental agreement. Landlords should stick by the rules to increase their odds of winning an eviction case.

I've been trying to get rid of my tenant for like 2 years good luck the courts will do anything not to evict and treat land lords like criminals

[JoeRod-rt]

Does the landlord need to go to the hearing, or can the attorney attend the hearing on behalf of the landlord?

[danielmelendez]

All the notices that I got was on the John Doe. It was never on my name. What are my options I want to go to trial for that. Is it smart? I lived there 30 yearsI
Spent $80, 000 on the house the landlord lost it to the bank. The bank sold it without telling me or any agreements with me.

Also can you let us know the differences between 5-day, 10-day, 14-day, and 30-day notices? I want to ensure everything is done correctly before obtaining a petition and having it served by a process server(if needed).

What about Landlords who have tenants who are constantly damaging our investment property?? We keep repairing and just found out from the plumber that they are damaging our property and other issues such as making holes in our walls, damaging our water tank, etc. and we keep paying all the time. Is there a Nuisance eviction act in NY State? These ugly tenants on the second floor (2 brothers) want the lower level occupants to leave by doing these acts where we have a duplex. not fair!

As one landlord stated on another post " landslaves". Very useful information in the interim. Thank you Sir. 🌟 💯

Question: What is the wait period if any after the 5 day late notice before you can serve the Demand For Rent 14 day notice? Also when does that wait period start. IE. The day the post office attempts to deliver the certified letter?

[tammymaxima]

Is the affidavit required with the quit letter?

[Elijah-fkml]

Must I send them the 5-day late rent notice first if the Late Rent Notice (that resembles the 14-day notice to quit) sent by certified mail Includes this information?

[youngprince]

If a provision in my lease says landlord needs to give 5 day notice to comply or quit, does that override a 10 day law? For holdover. Not for non payment. I feel like yes if they signed the lease with that wording in it

[Jr-hvyn]

[marylee]

Don’t forget that these ppl are living off of other ppls hard work, blood sweat and tears. So what happens when the mortgage is paid? Do they lower the rent?

[LetArtsLive]

The only thing I have violated is hanging late.Because I can't get out.Because I got one leg.He never said a thing about it but he will Now that he wants me out bastard

[LetArtsLive]

I live in Batavia, New York.I am on section eight I lived here almost sixteen years in july twenty twenty four. Is my name is daniel cherry. I had a person attacked me at my house. And I protected myself and I still got a year in jail so it's on my record. I have an eviction on my record from my swarm. Lord cause all I did was ask to have something fixed. But he couldn't do that. So then he's terminating me. And if you're on section 8, you only get one month by month lease. After the first year, if my landlord's not gonna do a yearly least they can k*** m* a** cause they're gonna get a lot of money. I paid for this house.. Now I have one leg.I do not have an aid.My house doesn't exactly wonderfully clean but I take out my garbage and don't stink. I didn't break holes in the wall, but I'm gonna be screwed by my slum, Lord. Because I asked to have the porch fixed. Then they say they're selling the house. That's a good one, but they're not because they're liars. And then they say oh, you're getting terminated. Well maybe that's legal. I don't know, but I don't think so.. Terminated, evicted what's the difference?I don't see much except it's good for the landlord. If I withhold my rent, I will be shut off Hud if I don't move out bye. April 30th 2024.They will shut me off h.U.D. It is not my fault and they're trying to make it into a 3 bedroom.But all I have is here.Say news from the person at independent living that helps me and she's not a very good representative or strong like I . Nobody should have to go through the shit I went through. And landlords should be held accountable for being jerks. Swearing at you having their workers telling you in a text which I have.I can move if I don't like s***Coming on my head yeah things like that. I hope the law protects me.Because if a cop comes to drag me out, I'll have a place to live.It's ridiculous what they're doing to me. Oh I can get help from legal services. If I'm freaking thrown out evicted. I'm not going to wait that long.I will file papers myself. To h*** with that, they are scoring me. Everywhere I didn't deserve anything to happen to me. Only ask to have something fixed. There are people across the United States. Afraid to ask to have something fixed and be homeless. So they're living in a s*** hole and all these people are throwing them out. And it's u* for tenants like me. Because some of them are really bad. Tenants and some of them are really bad, bad landlords. I can tell the difference. I saw 1 video. There's a giant hole in the ceiling. Oh, it's the tenant's fault. Well maybe the tenant was afraid to tell about it because if they do they get what I got?. That is his fault.He said he in the makes them mow.The lawn without a lawn mower.Cause he's not gonna give them one. If the last person to rape milan was my children in Two thousand fourteen.. I was a single dad. I raised my kids here. I'm gonna get scrubbed tomorrow. My life is over. I'll be standing on the street with a sign and I'm gonna say something about them, cause it's not gonna ask for money. If anybody has never lived outdoors, maybe it should go out there and try to do it when it's mine is 10 near Buffalo, New York and Batavia. Try that and see if you live. I froze my leg solid. I do not need to be homeless in New York. I was stupid. I shouldn't hitchhiked to anywhere but here. Back thenyou could get picked up. I know.
Every state has different laws, but they must be basically the same.Because it's controlled by the federal government.Just like a jew d that's what i'm going to call the federal government.
