LeRoy Village, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 128 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 128-68
Transfer of ownership
Operative Text
No owner of any dwelling, dwelling unit, rooming house, rooming unit or premises upon whom any notice or order pursuant to this chapter has been served shall sell, transfer, grant, mortgage, lease, or otherwise dispose thereof, such property to another until compliance with the provisions of such notice or order has been secured, or until such owner shall furnish to the purchaser, transferee, grantee, mortgagee or lessee, prior to such sale, transfer, grant, mortgage or lease, a true copy of such notice or order and at the same time give adequate notification to the Housing Inspector of his intent to sell, transfer, grant, mortgage or lease and supply the name and address of such person or persons to whom the sale, transfer, grant, mortgage or lease is proposed. A purchaser, transferee, grantee, mortgagee or lessee who has been informed of the existence of any notice or order issued pursuant to this chapter shall be bound thereby and shall be required to comply with all previous notices and orders issued pursuant to this chapter and shall be subject to all the provisions and penalties contained in this chapter.
Section 128-68 of LeRoy Village's Code of Ordinances restricts property owners who have received a housing notice or order from freely transferring their property without first addressing that notice. An owner may proceed with a sale, mortgage, or lease only if the violation is resolved beforehand, or if the incoming party receives a copy of the outstanding notice or order and the Housing Inspector is notified of the transaction with the new party's contact information. Any buyer, tenant, or other recipient who is informed of an existing notice or order becomes legally bound by it and must comply with all related requirements and penalties under Chapter 128.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators subject to a housing notice or order under LeRoy Village Code Chapter 128 generally ensure that any pending compliance matters are resolved before completing a property transfer, or they provide the incoming party with a true copy of the outstanding notice or order as required by § 128-68. Compliant operators also notify the Housing Inspector in advance of any intended sale, lease, or mortgage, supplying the name and address of the prospective party. Maintaining clear records of notices received, disclosures made, and inspector notifications sent is a common practice for demonstrating adherence to this provision.

Under § 128-68 of LeRoy Village's Code of Ordinances, a tenant who receives a copy of an outstanding housing notice or order prior to signing a lease is considered legally informed and becomes bound by that notice's requirements. This means tenants entering a rental with a disclosed violation inherit the compliance obligations tied to it, which can affect habitability and legal standing. Tenants who believe a landlord failed to properly disclose an existing notice or order may wish to contact the LeRoy Village Housing Inspector or consult a local tenant-rights organization to understand available options.
