I live in Westchester and got a printout of my apartment's registration history from the DHCR. Over a seven year period, my name and address aren't even mentioned. Instead, there are different random names/random addresses registered for each year. DHCR confirmed that was the correct printout for my address, that's what the landlord put there.
What is the significance of this? Does it make the apartment illegal, my past leases invalid? Why would the landlord do that?, etc.? This coincides with other legal matters at this apartment and wanted to know if this to my advantage, if at all. Thanks.
