The FARE Act Survives in the Second Circuit, and Good Cause Eviction Enters Its Second Year: What New York City Landlords Must Change《FARE法》在第二巡回法院获维持，《正当理由驱逐法》进入第二年：纽约市业主须作出的调整
IWhat Changed变化内容
New York City's FARE Act, effective June 11, 2025, prohibits a broker who represents the landlord, or who lists an apartment with the landlord's permission, from charging the tenant a fee, bars landlords from requiring tenants to hire a broker, and gives tenants a private right of action. In REBNY v. City of New York, No. 25-1506 (2d Cir. July 13, 2026), the Second Circuit affirmed the denial of a preliminary injunction, rejecting the industry's First Amendment challenge under the Central Hudson standard and its Contracts Clause claim.纽约市《FARE法》自2025年6月11日起生效，禁止代表业主或经业主许可挂牌的经纪人向租户收费，禁止业主要求租户聘请经纪人，并赋予租户私人诉权。在REBNY诉纽约市案（第二巡回上诉法院，案号25-1506，2026年7月13日）中，法院维持了拒绝初步禁令的裁定，依Central Hudson标准驳回业界的第一修正案主张，并驳回其合同条款主张。
Under the Good Cause Eviction Law, N.Y. Real Prop. Law art. 6-A, the 2026 presumptively reasonable rent increase for the five boroughs is 8.38%, computed as CPI plus 5%, capped at 10%. Recent lower-court decisions have addressed its notice rules, including Bedrock Equities LLC v. Husain, 2026 NY Slip Op 26044 (Civ. Ct. Kings Cnty. 2026).依《正当理由驱逐法》（《纽约州不动产法》第6-A章），2026年纽约市五个区的推定合理租金涨幅为8.38%，按消费物价指数加5%计算，上限10%。近期下级法院判决已就其通知规则作出解释，包括Bedrock Equities LLC诉Husain案（2026 NY Slip Op 26044，布鲁克林民事法院，2026年）。
IIAnalysis分析
With the injunction denied on appeal, the FARE Act is enforceable now, and its private right of action exposes landlords to claims for their agents' charges. Listing agreements written before June 2025 commonly assumed the tenant would pay. For owners of buildings with more than ten units statewide, the Good Cause cap governs renewal increases, and every renewal, rent demand and petition must carry the § 231-c notice; owners who rely on the small-landlord exemption must be ready to prove it.上诉审维持拒绝禁令后，《FARE法》现已可执行，私人诉权使业主须为其代理人的收费承担责任。2025年6月前签订的挂牌协议，通常默认由租户付费。对在全州拥有十个以上单位的业主，续租涨幅受《正当理由驱逐法》上限约束，每份续租、租金催告及起诉状均须附第231-c条通知；依赖小业主豁免的业主，须准备好证明。
IIIWhat To Do Now应对建议
Revise listing and brokerage agreements so that the party engaging the broker pays the fee. Track unit counts across all ownership entities to determine whether the small-landlord exemption applies, and keep the § 231-c notice current with each annual DHCR figure.修改挂牌及经纪协议，由聘请经纪人的一方付费。统计所有持有实体名下的单位总数，以判断是否适用小业主豁免，并按DHCR每年公布的数字更新第231-c条通知。
