Hi.
I am over 21 years old and live with my mother in a rent-stabilized apartment. She is about to renew her lease and would like to add me to the lease in case anything should happen to her. (Currently, it's in he name alone.) The landlord said the addition would require a 20% increase in rent. Can he legally do this?
