If you are moving in NYC during the summer, here are a few things you can do to make the day go smoother for yourself, your movers, and your possessions.

To succeed a relative in their NYC rent-stabilized apartment, you have to have lived in the apartment with them for two years before they leave.

New Yorkers can snag up to $100,000 in a forgivable loan towards their first purchase of a condo, co-op, or one- to four-family house in New York City.

Under New York’s Good Cause Eviction law, a landlord can refuse a lease renewal if they intend to demolish the building.

In New York, you are entitled to have a roommate who is not on the lease to help split the rent, said tenant attorney Altagracia Pierre-Outerbridge.

When you are negotiating to buy a place in NYC, avoid focusing on single, isolated terms and giving up if you don't receive a counteroffer.
