Sands Point, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 127 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 127-12
Owner and broker's responsibility prior to listing
Operative Text
It shall be unlawful and a violation of the Village Code for any Owner, broker, or agent to list, show, or otherwise offer for lease or rent on behalf of the Owner any Dwelling Unit for which a current rental occupancy registration has not been issued by the Village. It shall be the Owner, broker or agent's duty to verify the existence of a valid registration before acting on behalf of the Owner.
Section 127-12 of the Sands Point Code of Ordinances makes it unlawful to list, show, or otherwise offer a dwelling unit for lease or rent unless the Village has issued a current rental occupancy registration for that unit. The rule applies to owners, brokers, and agents alike, and it places an affirmative duty on all three to confirm that a valid registration exists before taking any action to market the unit. Proceeding without that registration constitutes a violation of the Village Code.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 127-12, compliant property owners in Sands Point obtain and maintain a current rental occupancy registration from the Village before any dwelling unit is listed, shown, or offered for rent. Operators generally keep documentation of that registration on hand so that any broker or agent acting on their behalf can verify its validity prior to marketing the unit. Because the duty to verify extends to brokers and agents as well, owners commonly share registration records with those representatives at the outset of any leasing engagement.

Section 127-12 of the Sands Point Village Code establishes that a dwelling unit may not lawfully be listed or offered for rent without a current rental occupancy registration issued by the Village. If a tenant discovers that a unit was marketed or rented without such a registration, that fact may be relevant to a complaint filed with the Village or raised as part of a broader inquiry into the unit's legal rental status. Tenants who have questions about whether a unit holds a valid registration may contact the Village directly or consult a tenant-rights organization familiar with Nassau County housing regulations.
