Legal Question in Real Estate Law in New York
renting a basement
I have a legal one-family house and I'm renting my basement. I know its illegal and my ''kind'' neighbors threatening me with sending some complain. I want to know to which department my neighbors can complain to make me pay some fins or get rid of my tenants?
-Thanks

Re: renting a basement
Depending on where you live determines where the complaint will be filed. If where you live is located in a city, the complaint is usually with the City Building Department. If you live in a Town, the complaint is usually filed with the Town Building Department or the Town Attorney.
