Mamdani's Rental Ripoff Report Piles 23 Rules On Landlords
The plan lets landlords screen tenants by income or credit, never both, and pushes tenant unions building by building.
- Eric Kober details Mayor Mamdani's 23-point 'Rental Ripoff Report' targeting rental landlords.
- Landlords may run an income check or a credit check, never both together.
- City Hall would widen rent-withholding grounds and expand enforcement against noncompliant landlords.
Why it matters: None of the report's twenty-three rules adds a single apartment to a city short of them.
