BILL NUMBER:S130
Title of bill
An act to amend the real property tax law, in relation to prohibiting landlords convicted of housing violations from claiming exemptions, credits or itemized deductions related to such rental property on state tax returns
Purpose or general idea of bill
This bill would prohibit landlords to collect incentives and tax credits on properties that violate housing codes.
Summary of specific provisions
Section 1 adds section 497 of real property tax law to prohibit property owners convicted of two or more housing violations from claiming exceptions, credit or reductions related to such rental property until violations have been remediated. Subsection 2 - Upon the conviction of a landlord for any housing violation, a form shall be provided by housing court or any court of competent jurisdiction to the property owner, this form shall be filed with each New York state tax return of such convicted landlord until such violations have been remediated and certified
Justification
The bill addresses the incongruity of landlords convicted of housing violations receiving tax credits and subsidies for rental properties. This bill would create a system where no tax credits are given until violations are remediated.
