New York's Good Cause Eviction Law: An Overview and Impact Analysis

By Jennifer L. Alexander
August 01, 2024

On Jan. 17, 2024, New York's real property law was amended by adding new Article 6-A in New York's Real Property Law — now called the "Good Cause Eviction Law." This legislation aims to provide greater security and fairness for tenants across the state, contributing to stabilizing rental situations and curtailing unjust evictions.

The Good Cause Eviction Law went into effect on April 20, 2024. It applies to all new and renewed leases (unless specifically exempt) in New York City and allows other municipalities across the state to opt into the law through local legislation. This flexibility enables tailored approaches that consider regional housing market conditions.
