Constructive Eviction occurs when a landlord’s actions—or failure to act—make a rental property unlivable, effectively forcing the tenant to move out. This can include issues like lack of heat, pest infestations, or unsafe living conditions. Tenants facing such circumstances have legal rights and may be entitled to rent relief or other remedies. Understanding constructive eviction is essential for protecting yourself against negligent or unlawful landlord behavior. Learn how to identify it, document your case, and seek justice under New York law.
