Nassau County rentals follow HSTPA notice rules requiring 30, 60, or 90 days written notice before non-renewal based on tenancy length. ETPA rent stabilization does not apply to Nassau, so no-fault non-renewals remain legal with proper notice and lawful reason.
NY Real Property Law section 226-c, enacted by HSTPA in 2019, requires landlords seeking to terminate a tenancy without fault to provide 30 days notice for tenancies under one year, 60 days for one to two year tenancies, and 90 days for tenancies of two or more years. Nassau County is not covered by the Emergency Tenant Protection Act so landlords retain broader discretion than NYC or covered Westchester localities, but they cannot evict in retaliation for code complaints, organizing, or fair-housing complaints. Nonpayment evictions follow a separate 14-day demand process under Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law section 711.
Notices that fall short of HSTPA periods are dismissed in Nassau District Court housing parts, requiring landlords to restart the process and pay tenant attorney fees of $500 to $5,000 in some cases.
