If you’re a struggling New York landlord who couldn’t get relief in the original Emergency Rental Assistance Program, you can now apply for thousands of dollars in aid through a new state program launched Thursday.
The Landlord Rental Assistance Program gives eligible recipients payments of up to a year’s worth of past-due rent. This covers landlords who could not participate in the federally-funded state Emergency Rental Assistance Program either because their tenants declined to complete an application, or had vacated their residences while still behind on their rent payments.
