My question involves landlord-tenant law in the state of new York.
So, 2 years ago we signed a lease to rent an apt for 2 years with the option of a third year with an increase in rent.
Unfortunately the apartment was in very poor conditions: doors fell on us, lamps fell on our heads, a/c doesn't work and kitchen faucet was leaking. During the 2 years I requested the (cheap) landlord to fix at least the doors (hazard) and recently the faucet which wasn't even turning off anymore (water spilled out even when shut).
In 2 months we were supposed to renew our third year but the landlord basically told us to collect our stuff and go by the end of the lease. It was a shock to me. We had our rent on auto pay, we were never late! We had the right to request whatever we requested to fix and now he is kicking us out saying that he doesn't want to let us stay the extra year in the contract.
Is there anything we can do? The landlord doesn't like us because of all the things I asked him to fix.
There are still many issues in this apartment and if he does end up kicking us out I wish the new tenant will harass him about those as well, he is evil.
