What is the name of your state?NY
I have been renting a space in a parking garage in the apartment building across the street for a couple of years. I paid 1-month rent plus one-month security when I started renting the space. . In January one night when I parked my car there were a few handwritten signs stating that the rent was going up $95 per month. There was no written notice, no warning, nothing - just some handwritten signs posted. Here is some info on the situation--Brooklyn. NY--Everyone in the garage are on a month to month basis because I don't think the landlord of the garage has a license to run this business. A license is not posted anywhere as required by NYC. There is no maintenance in the garage at all as there is garbage that is never collected. There is a padlock on the garage door and tenants have the key. There are 18 spaces in this garage. I live in the apt building across the street. I pay my bill every month on time automatically. I am out of town for a couple of weeks. I just got a call from my super who tells me that there is another handwritten sign up that says there are new owners and everyone must vacate the lot. Tam told the sign was put up on Monday and the vacate date is tomorrow Friday. Again never received anything in the mail to notify me. I paid the rent just last week. I am out of town so I have not seen the sign and cannot get the car even if I wanted to move it. I would not have even know about the sign if my super (who also has a car parked there) did not call me. I He also tell me everyone who parks there does not know what to do. I tried to phone the landlord but no answer. Do I have any rights at all? Can he have my car towed while I am away?? Any advice to help would be so appreciated.
