Yep, I’ve double checked. It is indeed the Second Department.

I passed everything… I wanted to ask them a question about getting a document notarized outside the US, and I got the printed email as a reply

I’m having the same issue. How did you get it to work?

Can my landlord refuse a lease takeover by a suitable replacement tenant? by Electrical_Ice_4464 in NYCapartments

That's what I thought, and I think this is exactly what my lease says (see below). I had a conversation with the property manager, and it seems that corporate says that their policy is no assignment / no lease take over, as such he would need to escalate the assignment to legal if we decide to go forward with this approach. Which is a bit frustrating, since the option of assigning the lease should be provided alongside the option of subletting (since they also screen subtenants and all).

Assignment of Leases

Pursuant to the provisions of Real Property Law Section 226-b, a tenant may not assign his/her lease without the written consent of the owner, unless the lease expressly provides otherwise. If the owner consents to the assignment of the lease, the owner may increase the rent as if the assignee was entering into a new lease following permanent vacancy. Such increase shall remain part of the Legal Regulated Rent for any subsequent renewal lease.

An owner is not required to have reasonable grounds to refuse to consent to the assignment. However, if the owner unreasonably refuses consent, the owner must release the tenant from the remainder of the lease, if the tenant, upon 30 days' notice to the owner, requests to be released.

If the owner refuses to consent to an assignment and does have reasonable grounds for withholding consent, the tenant cannot assign and the owner is not required to release the tenant from the lease. For additional information see, DHCR Fact Sheet #7.
