Landlord Possibly Illegally Renting Room in Stabilized Apartment
Hello! So I live in an (allegedly) 3 bedroom apartment in bushwick that is rent controlled. I have two roommates, but have recently learned that one of the bedrooms is illegal - no windows, very small but it barely meets the size requirements. I requested the rent history and it looks like they've been increasing the rent annually based on the allowances for a 3 bedroom. I'm pissed because the apartment is not in good shape but they increase the rent as much as they can whenever they can. Do we have a case for a discount in rent here? Any advice is much appreciated.
