New York Landlord 
New York Landlord Attorney Robert Friedman shared a fantastic article in the Fall 2026 issue of RENT Magazine, the official publication of the American Apartment Owners Association (AAOA:) TENANT FILED BANKRUPTCY! CAN YOU STILL COLLECT RENT OR EVICT? Many of the articles in the Fall 2026 issue of RENT offer landlord’s preventive steps to protect their rental business. The articles describe how outdated building access, repair requests, and water damage could all lead to trouble. Learn how to avoid an IRS audit and how automated late fees can become a fair housing risk. The contributors answer some very thought-provoking questions, such as what is Cost Segregation? What makes renters stay and why am I not getting more applications? What if you can’t find a replacement property in time for your 1031 Exchange? If a tenant files for bankruptcy, can you still collect rent or evict them? What do insurance underwriters notice before they present a quote? Also discussed is the growing movement to end the practice of hidden rental fees by making transparency the safer approach.
