New York Lead-Based Paint Disclosure
This Lead-Based Paint Disclosure is built with New York as the governing state. These are the New York landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.
New York rules at a glance
| Lead-based paint | Federal warning and known-hazard disclosure for pre-1978 housing (42 U.S.C. §4852d); NYC adds annual notices for pre-1960 buildings. |
|---|---|
| Landlord entry | No statutory minimum — reasonable notice by common law |
Landlord entry & access
New York has no statute setting a fixed entry-notice period. Access is governed by the implied covenant of quiet enjoyment; Attorney General guidance treats “reasonable” notice as roughly a week for repairs and 24 hours for inspections, with immediate entry allowed in an emergency. A lease that promises a specific window is making a contractual promise, not restating a hard statutory floor.
Required disclosures in New York
- Lead-based paint — Federal warning and known-hazard disclosure for pre-1978 housing (42 U.S.C. §4852d); NYC adds annual notices for pre-1960 buildings.
- Sprinkler system — Every lease must state, in bold, whether the building has a sprinkler system and when it was last maintained (RPL §231-a).
- Flood risk — The lease must disclose whether the unit is in a FEMA flood-hazard area and any known flood history (RPL §231-b).
- Certificate of occupancy — Owners of three or fewer units must give a bold notice about the C/O status before signing (RPL §235-bb).
- Bed bugs — Statewide notice to nearby units within 72 hours of the landlord’s knowledge (RPL §235-j); NYC also requires an annual building bedbug-history disclosure.
- NYC-only riders — Window-guard notices (Admin. Code §17-123), stove-knob-cover offers, and the Local Law 55 allergen/mold fact sheet apply to New York City properties.
