A 1413 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to requiring landlords to allow for the estate of a deceased tenant to enter the property for sixty days following the death of the tenant

This bill requires landlords to allow the estate (or personal representative) of a deceased tenant to access the rental property for 60 days after the tenant's death. It directly affects landlords who must grant this access and the estate handling the tenant's affairs. The key provision states the estate is responsible for rent during the 60-day period unless a separate agreement exists to cover it. The law takes effect immediately upon passage.
