Contract Grade

Lease

C

This is a standard NYC residential lease with several tenant-unfavorable clauses. The landlord retains broad entry rights without specifying adequate notice, and the auto-renewal clause gives you a very short window to avoid being locked into another year. The security deposit terms are acceptable but the late fee structure is aggressive.

Top Concerns

1Landlord may enter with only 24 hours notice for non-emergency inspections — consider negotiating for 48-hour written notice
2Auto-renewal kicks in if you don't give 60-day notice — most leases require only 30 days
3Late fee of 8% kicks in after just 3 days — unusually aggressive
