Good Cause Eviction

Is East 118 Street covered by Good Cause Eviction?

New York's Good Cause Eviction law (effective April 20, 2024) gives many market-rate tenants the right to renew their lease and challenge rent hikes above the annual local rent standard. It doesn't apply to every building.

Likely not covered. This building appears to be exempt from Good Cause Eviction for the reason below.
  • New construction. Built in 2020. Good Cause protections don't apply until 2050 (30 years after construction).

Good Cause also excludes condos & co-ops, subsidized/regulated housing, and units renting above 245% of Fair Market Rent — signals we can't always confirm from public data. Not legal advice. Learn more at nyc.gov or call 311 for the Tenant Helpline.

How we score buildings

How East 118 Street's risk score is calculated

It estimates the probability that HPD inspectors will find serious or dangerous violations at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What's driving this score

These are the three data points that most influenced this building's score — ranked by how much weight the model placed on each one.

Building size

Total residential square footage — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, HVAC, etc.) that can fail.

Tenant HPD complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with HPD about this address over the last 7 years.

Number of apartments

The number of residential units affects how the model interprets complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.
