If you want to collect a rent hike for making improvements to, or installing new equipment in, an occupied rent-stabilized apartment, you must get the tenant’s written consent to the rent hike. If you don’t do this properly and the tenant challenges the rent hike by filing a rent overcharge complaint with the Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR), you could lose out on the rent hike.
