NYC rules that apply here

Based on the building’s size, age and type. These apply whether or not anything is open.

• HPD affordable projectBuilt or preserved with HPD financing or incentives since 2014 (HPD Affordable Housing Production). A regulatory agreement sets income bands and rents for the counted units. Vacancies are generally filled through Housing Connect, with income certifications.
• 421-aReceives the 421-a new-construction tax exemption. Rental units are generally rent-stabilised while the benefit lasts, and the affordable units for longer. Owners must keep filing with HPD and DOF to keep the benefit.
• LL97 Article 321On DOB’s Local Law 97 list under Article 321 (certain affordable housing and houses of worship). Instead of yearly caps, a one-time compliance: the listed prescriptive energy measures, or meeting the 2030 limits, documented in a report to DOB. The report was due in 2025; DOB issues violations to buildings that did not file.
• LL87 energy auditOn DOB’s Local Law 87 list: an energy audit and retro-commissioning report every ten years, the year set by the block number’s last digit.
• HPD registration every yearRequired for every residential building with 3 or more apartments, between May 21 and September 1. Without it, an owner cannot bring a nonpayment case or certify corrected violations. Read the guide
