New York City Mayor Eric Mamdani is taking aim at what he calls "bad landlords," vowing to crack down on property owners who neglect their buildings and put tenants at risk. However, tracking down these individuals has proven to be a daunting task. With thousands of rental properties across the city, identifying and holding accountable those who consistently disregard safety codes and housing regulations will be a significant challenge for the Mayor's administration. As Mamdani seeks to make good on his promise, he will need to navigate a complex web of laws and bureaucratic hurdles to root out the worst offenders and protect the city's most vulnerable residents.
