New York State’s Housing Deal: A Step in the Right Direction

Small Wins, Big Challenges: New York’s Housing Crisis Remains Unaddressed

According to NYPost, New York State has made a new deal to help fix the housing problem. The deal is a good start, but it’s not enough. The deal gives a tax break to new apartment buildings and limits how much rent can be raised on some apartments. This will help someAmericans who are struggling to find a place to live.

The tax break will help small buildings with fewer than 100 apartments. It will make it cheaper for them to build and maintain their buildings. However, it’s not as good for bigger buildings because they need more money to make it worth building. The rent control measure will only help Americans in New York State who can afford to take their landlord to court.
