Is the LL required to return interest (minus 1% admin fee) on a deposit if there are fewer than 6 units in the bldg? Apt is not rent controlled or stablized. Lease is generic and states that "If the Building contains six or more apartments, the bank account will earn interest."
This fact sheet makes it sound like all deposits must accrue rent:
