No Increase for Garage Roof
LVT Number: 11436
Landlord applied for MCI rent hikes for installation of a new room on the garage for the building. The DRA ruled against landlord, and landlord appealed. The DHCR again ruled against landlord. To qualify for rent increases, MCIs must be building-wide improvements, depreciable under the Internal Revenue Code, and required for the operation, preservation, and maintenance of the structure. Since the garage in this case was a free-standing structure not connected to the building, the installation of a new garage roof didn't qualify as an MCI.
