Overcharge Amount Must Be Refunded to NYCHA
LVT Number: 14527
Tenant complained of a rent overcharge. The DRA ruled for tenant. Landlord appealed, claiming that tenant never paid more than the legal rent because tenant got Section 8 benefits and didn't pay the full rent charged. The DHCR ruled against landlord. Even though landlord didn't owe any rent refund to tenant, it still had to refund the overcharge to NYCHA, which had paid the excess rent on tenant's behalf.
