The Real Estate Finance Bureau of the New York State Office of the Attorney General registers cooperative and condominium offering plans, monitors compliance filings, and pursues enforcement under state law. It does not provide private legal representation. Filings and technical guidance: ag.ny.gov.
About this public office
The bureau is a key regulator for NYC’s dense co-op and condo markets, interacting with developers, sponsor counsel, and homeowner boards. Consumers reviewing offering plans should still retain private counsel for negotiations beyond what regulators explain in FAQs.
Fee schedules and submission portals change when the Attorney General updates regulations—always download the latest forms from the official AG site.
