Work Done After Tenant Moved in

LVT Number: 14741

Tenant complained of a rent overcharge. The DRA ruled against tenant. Tenant appealed, arguing that some of the apartment improvements claimed by landlord and for which the DRA approved a rent increase weren't done until after tenant moved in. The DHCR ruled for tenant and disallowed some of the rent increase calculated by the DRA. Landlord's documentation for certain kitchen improvements showed the work wasn't done until after the start of tenant's lease.
