New York has no direct equivalent to California's AB-1482 statewide rent cap, but HSTPA imposes its own lease-disclosure regime in Westchester, including notices about ETPA status, security-deposit rules, and rent-history rights.
Westchester landlords must provide written disclosures at lease signing covering whether the unit is ETPA-stabilized, the maximum security deposit allowed under GOL 7-108, and the tenant's right to request rent history from NY Homes and Community Renewal. Lead-based paint disclosures under federal law and bedbug disclosures under NY MDL Section 27-2018.1 also apply in qualifying buildings. Unlike California's annual rent-cap notice, no annual cap exists outside ETPA villages, but landlords must still provide statutory pre-renewal notice of any rent increase exceeding 5 percent.
Missing required HSTPA disclosures invalidates lease provisions, blocks rent increases, and exposes landlords to DHCR enforcement actions.
