Property owner advocacy groups push back on Mamdani's 'Rental Ripoff Report,' public database of landlords

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's 'Rental Ripoff Report' and a public database of landlords have drawn sharp criticism from property owner advocacy groups. The report highlights high rents and proposes 23 reforms, while the database, which lists properties potentially subject to a pied-à-terre tax, has been accused of exposing landlords to harassment and complicating policy implementation.
