If services are not being maintained the tenant must first inform the owner in writing. If services are not restored, the tenant may file an Application For A Rent Reduction Based Upon Decreased Service(s) – Individual Apartment (form RA-81) with DHCR based on a decrease of services. See Fact Sheet #14.
