Serve the 3 Day Notice
Serve a 3 day notice to cure or quit on a tenant who has failed to pay their rent.
First, you should look at your lease if one exists. The landlord may be required, by the lease, to serve the 3 notice in writing.
Otherwise, in New York, a 3 day notice to quit can be given to the tenant orally. If your lease requires that the notice be in writing, then the landlord may be required to have a friend or process server serve the 3 day notice. Some counties may allow the landlord to serve the 3 day notice via certified mail.

If you are a landlord, you will eventually need to evict a tenant. Here are some things you should have at the ready:
- money to cover the mortgage if a tenant does not pay rent for several months;
- a well written lease that provides for additional rent and attorneys fees;
- a knowledgeable landlord-tenant attorney;
- a Multiple Dwelling Registration number (if required);
- certified copy of your MDR (if required);
- your original deed or a certified copy.
The above will help speed up the eviction process.

Clients often ask: “What amount can you settle my debt for?”
Our answer is almost always: “It depends on several factors.”
These factors include:
- the creditor
- the type of debt
- the age of the debt
- how many times the debt has been transferred
- the hardship claimed
- how the settlement will be paid out
Secured debts (i.e. mortgages, car loans) are much harder to settle than unsecured debts (i.e. credit cards, medical bills). Some debts can be settled for as little as 10%. However, there are creditors that insist on having a much higher percentage of the debt paid back. The creditor starts high, we start low. We never know exactly where the negotiations will end. Creditors have their target settlement amount, and we have ours.
So, no one can guarantee you that they will settle your debts for a sum certain. Be wary of any company that guarantees they will save you a bunch of money. We have numerous clients who have paid at least double our fee to a debt settlement company before coming to us. Many of these companies failed to deliver any results at all, or produced dismal results at best. What’s even more shocking is that none of the individuals understood the agreements they signed. They had no idea where their money was going!
If you choose to hire someone to settle your debts, please choose wisely!

Maybe.
The NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD) requires registration of One- and two-family dwellings that are not occupied by the owner or his/her family member. Not having your property registered could lead to a fine, dismissal of your landlord tenant eviction case or denial of back rent owed to you by your tenant.
