Landlord's Application to Determine Substantial Rehab Premature

LVT Number: #25408

Landlord asked the DHCR to rule on whether its building was exempt from rent stabilization due to substantial rehabilitation. The DRA closed the case without making a ruling. Landlord appealed and lost. Landlord admitted that it hadn't completed the work required for a substantial rehab. It would be premature for the DHCR to decide on the building's status at this time. Landlord could reapply after finishing the rehabilitation work. A new Certificate of Occupancy must be issued before a substantial rehabilitation can be determined.
