We all know that NYC rents continue to spiral out of control, but can anyone offer some advice on our options given these facts:
- large multi-unit rental building on upper east side
- current rent = $4500/mo., so probably went through luxury decontrol some time ago (--> therefore, almost surely not rent stabilized now)
- current lease ends 4/30/00
- management company just came through with renewal offer at new rent of more than $6000/mo. (!)
- My roomates and I can't find a new apartment that fast -- what should we do?
- Can we just overstay the lease end date? Should we pay the old rent "month-to-month"? Pay the new rent? Get a lawyer?
Thanks in advance for your help....
