Helping property managers adhere to the NYS Housing Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Section 46 of New York State’s Housing Stability and Tenant Protection Act of 2019 mandates that property managers use Certified Mail® to deliver notice to apartment lessees of overdue rent. Filling out USPS forms, sending employees to the Post Office to get receipts, waiting for signed Green Cards to come back, and filing the Green Cards in case they are needed later, can be a real hassle.

Fortunately, there’s a much easier way. SimpleCertifiedMail.com™ makes every step of preparing, tracking and managing Certified Mail easier and faster, just leaving the Post Office to do what it does best, deliver your Certified Mail. Here’s how:
