Our Services
-
MEDIATION & 311
Maybe you don’t know how to contact the right person for repairs, and would like us to mediate between you and your landlord for repairs. Or maybe you’ve already tried mediation, and want to take the next small step. West Bronx Housing can help you reach out to your landlord by phone or by a letter, or help you start to file 311 complaints.
-
RENT REDUCTION
We always encourage you to contact your super or management company first to request the repairs, but any tenant with repair issues can apply for a rent reduction, which lowers their rent until the property owner completes repairs.
-
HP ACTION
Some of you have been waiting patiently for repairs for months, if not years, giving the super and property owner chance after chance after chance. For those of you who want to get Housing Court involved, West Bronx Housing can help you file an HP Action to bring your landlord to court for repairs.
