A New York City landlord told tenants in 18 of his buildings not to worry about April rent payments as the city grapples with a pandemic that has left record numbers of people unemployed.
Mario Salerno, a Brooklyn landlord, left a notice on his 200 tenant’s doors on Monday saying: “Due to the recent pandemic of Coronavirus COVID-19 affecting all of us, please note I am waiving rent for the month for April,” according to local media.
Salerno, a native of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, told an NBC affiliate that he did it out of concern for the neighborhood’s health. He told another local outlet he’s also amping up sanitation services for common areas in his properties.
“God is good to me and we’re successful, and I’m just really concerned about everyone’s health,” Salerno said.
