Landlord Can't Amend Annual Rent Registrations to Increase Listed Rents

Landlord asked the DHCR for permission under Rent Stabilization Code Section 2528.3(c) and 2522.6(b) to amend an apartment’s annual rent registrations for 2014 and 2015. The DRA ruled against landlord, who appealed and lost. Landlord sought to reflect recalculated rents on the registration forms, claiming that it needed to do so to correct the legal rents to reflect proper vacancy increases.
