NYSAR 2023 Legislative Advocacy Agenda

NYSAR’s Legislative Steering Committee approved its 2023 Legislative Advocacy Agenda, including support of additional measures and incentives to promote and increase homeownership, particularly for first-time homebuyers, a technical amendment to remove restrictions on the state’s telemarketing restrictions during states of emergency, and increased fair housing measures to combat discrimination in cooperative housing.

NYSAR’s legislative agenda also includes opposition to proposals imposing “good cause” eviction standards in rental housing, prohibit landlords from collecting broker fees from tenants, and a requirement that all new residential and commercial construction be all electric beginning December 2025 along with a prohibition on the installation of fossil fuel space and water heating equipment in existing residential and multi-family buildings beginning in 2030. You can find a complete legislative agenda HERE, which will be posted on NYSAR’s website at a later date.
