New York tenant laws

Since I’m in New York, a tenant friendly state, is there anyway to put in a contract or something for me to be able to evict a tenant quicker if they go with out paying? Or would I still have to wait all of the months no matter what.

It is always important to have a good lease, regardless of your location.  A good lease clearly outlines the obligations of both the resident and landlord and makes things run more smoothly when there are issues.

That said, even the best lease cannot counteract the laws written by left-leaning states, nor the rulings of activist judges.
