Residential management in Chester: questions

How much security deposit can a landlord charge in Chester, NY?

Under New York's 2019 tenant protection law, most residential security deposits are capped at one month's rent and must be returned with an itemized statement within 14 days after the tenant moves out.

Why does a New Jersey company manage in Chester, NY?

Chester is a short drive from our Hamburg office across the state line, so it's served the same way as our Sussex County properties.

Do New Jersey rules apply to Chester properties?

No. Chester properties follow New York law. We manage each property under the rules of its own state.
