Hey all - I have a quick question for you all today.
By no-one elses's fault but my own I forgot about the Annual Apartment Registration that I received in the mail a few months back. This is Form RR-2A and is required to be sent to all tenants of rent-regulated buildings on an annual basis. I just recently came across the form and realized I never called to question like I originally had wanted to.
Long story short:
-In section (8a), it states that the Legal Regulated Rent on 4/1/2016 is roughly $1,400 per month.
-I moved in on 5/1/16. Can you please help me understand the amount in section 8a? Is this the max legal rent that the landlord is allowed to charge? I have been paying roughly $1,850 per month.
Just moved into NYC and am unfamiliar with how things work here. This is also my first rent-regulated apartment. Can anyone shed some light on this? Am I being overcharged?
Thanks for taking the time to read this!
