New York City · Task guide
Prepare a rent increase in New York City
Six stages, and the first decides everything: which regime the apartment is in. Stabilized renewals follow the Rent Guidelines Board order; rent-controlled apartments leave for the DHCR route; unregulated apartments get a §226-c notice, with a Good Cause reasonableness flag where covered. The branches stay separate so a stabilized apartment is never given a market-rate answer.

Preparation only. Nothing is saved to an account.
Stage 1 of 6
Establish the regime from records
Not from the building's age or the neighbourhood. The DHCR rent history and the lease rider say whether the apartment is stabilized; the MBR record says controlled; the HAP contract or regulatory agreement says subsidised.
The rent history printout or the programme document you relied on.
