Q & A on Painting Requirements for Rent-Regulated Apartments
It’s difficult to keep track of the various painting requirements that apply to building owners. If you own a building with three or more apartments or own a one- or two-family building with a tenant-occupied apartment, you must comply with Sections 27-2013 and 27-2014 of the city’s Administrative Code. The city’s Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) enforces these sections.
