I'm renting an apartment in N.Y. The rent expires in October, I need the apartment till next April. Landlord told me that the new lease will be for the whole year, and that I can not terminate it earlier. Does he have the right to do so? He also said that that because of the rent increase, I'll have to increase my security deposit. Is it correct?
Thank you very much<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
My response:
Yes, and most likely, yes.
