Renting Apartment "As Is" Doesn't Waive Right to Required Services
LVT Number: #19602
Tenant complained of a reduction in services based on a defective intercom. The DRA ruled for tenant and reduced his rent. Landlord appealed, claiming that when tenant moved in, he signed a lease to accept the apartment in "as is" condition. The DHCR ruled against landlord. Rent Stabilization Code Section 2523.4 requires landlord to maintain all required services provided on the base date of May 31, 1968. Tenant's lease clause didn't waive the right to required services under the Code.
