Re: helping elderly grandparents
Believe it or not, landlord/tenant law is fairly complex and is practiced differently throughout NYS. There are too many issues involved in your question to provide an answer here. You or your grandparents should consult with a reputable landlord/tenant attorney in the area where the building is located before you do anything.
