Tools

  1. Sign in to the NYCHA Self-Service Portal ↗ If you're a NYCHA tenant, your tenancy is governed by NYCHA's lease rules, not classic rent stabilization. The portal shows your rent calculation and complaint options.
  2. Talk to a housing organizer ↗ Met Council on Housing runs a tenant hotline and pairs renters with organizers familiar with NYC stabilization law.
  3. Find a tenant attorney ↗ Housing Court Answers maintains a directory of free and low-cost tenant lawyers across NYC. Overcharge cases often qualify for free legal representation.
