À propos de cet audio

 If things aren’t going right with your apartment, whether it’s something small or something big, it can throw you off in your career, your personal life, and your health, especially if you are a creative. You want your energy going into your art, your business, your family, and the causes and people you care about, not into grappling with housing issues. New York City tenants have more rights than tenants anywhere else in America. But NYC tenants also are shockingly uneducated about what those rights are. A right that you don’t know you have is the same as no right at all. And there are so many bits of incomplete information out there, peppered with urban myths about landlord-tenant law. This podcast will change all that. In each episode we look at current legal cases and statutes and the real-life apartment stories they give rise to here in the greatest city on earth. And every episode ends with a “Tenant Takeaway”, so you have actionable information to help you make better choices. The law belongs to you, NYC. But your ownership of the law is only as great as your understanding of the law. So, let’s learn, to live better! This podcast is intended for educational and informational purposes only. It is not legal advice, nor is it a substitute for obtaining legal advice from a qualified attorney. The views expressed are the speaker’s alone and may not reflect those of any organization or employer. Laws evolve, and outcomes depend on specific facts. Listening to this podcast does not create an attorney–client relationship. If you have a legal question, you should seek individualized counsel.Michelle Itkowitz Art Divertissement et arts de la scène Économie

    Episode 1: Breaking Your Lease Early - Seven Best Practices
    Nov 27 2025
    Yesterday, you signed a lease for an apartment in Brooklyn for $4100 per month. But all those career advice podcasts that you consumed on the Broadway Podcast Network finally paid off, and you got cast in a Broadway show…well…during its Off-Broadway run…in a state not exactly contiguous with New York. But this is the break you’ve been waiting for! The problem is you just committed to paying a landlord in Brooklyn $50,000 over the next year, for an apartment you no longer need. Fortunately, you have found this episode, “Best Practices for Breaking Your New York City Lease Early”. We are going to go over the law and the cases that you need to know, that are very much in tenants’ favor. Then we will wrap up with seven Tenant Takeaways, actionable tips to help you lessen your liability and, hopefully, negotiate your way out of your lease. Then you can put this chapter behind you without fear of the landlord chasing you all the way to Tupelo!
