With the full legislature and governor facing re-election in 2026, HGAR and NYSAR are already preparing for what could be a watershed year for housing policy.
The NYC Rent Guidelines Board voted to approve rent increases of 3% for one-year leases and 4.5% for two-year leases on rent-stabilized apartments.
NAR successfully secured its top five priorities in the final package.
HGAR and OneKey MLS presented a Zoom webinar on Sept. 10 with an expert panel of guests that discussed residential sales activity in New York City as well the latest on the recently-launched OneKey MLS—the first regional multiple listing service in the New York Metro area that boasts 40,000+ listings in 500 communities from Manhattan to the Hamptons to the Catskills. The panel included HGAR CEO Richard Haggerty; Brian D. Tormey, NTP, President, TitleVest; Leah Caro, President and Principal Broker, Park Sterling Realty and Chairperson, Board of Managers, OneKey MLS; Tracy Weir, CEO & Founder, August Partners, Inc.; Brian Phillips, Associate Broker, Douglas Elliman Real Estate and Leonard Steinberg, Chief Evangelist, Associate Broker, Compass.
