Navigate Yonkers Rental Regulations
Yonkers Rent Stabilization Law
Yonkers has its own rent stabilization ordinance covering buildings with 6+ units built before 1974. Track maximum allowable rent increases and tenant protections.
Emergency Tenant Protection Act (ETPA)
Some Yonkers buildings fall under NY State ETPA covering Westchester County. Understand which units require rent stabilization registration.
Security Deposit Rules (1 Month Max)
Following NYC precedent, Yonkers limits security deposits to 1 month rent. Must be held in NY bank account with proper accounting.
Certificate of Occupancy Requirements
Yonkers requires C of O for rental properties. Track inspection schedules, compliance deadlines, and renewal requirements.
Lead Paint Disclosure (Pre-1978)
Many Yonkers properties built before 1978 require EPA lead paint disclosures. Generate compliant forms automatically.
Proximity to NYC Regulations
While not in NYC, Yonkers landlords should understand NYC market dynamics as many tenants commute to Manhattan and expect similar standards.
