US-NY / NY Lien Law section 182

Self-storage software for New York operators.

New York's self-storage lien statute encoded day-by-day: first notice at D+10, sale eligibility at D+45, with publication, delivery, surplus, and fee guardrails pulled from NY Lien Law Sec. 182.

New York lien clock

The full day-by-day clock, with statute citations.

This is the actual policy seeded for New York. Every delinquent account locks in the rules that applied the day it opened.

US-NY / v2026.06.09

New York lien timeline

Late fee: Operator-configured fee after D+10
Notice path: Notice of Claim starts a 30-day demand clock from mailing
Sale gate: Auction permitted after the 30-day demand expires (D+45 on our default schedule)

No publication requirement; notice must travel by certified mail or by verified mail plus email — email alone is not valid service.

The full day-by-day timeline — every transition, delivery rule, and citation from first notice to auction — runs live in the product, and every case pins the version in force the day it opened.

What UnitOps does differently for New York operators

Built around the New York statute, not retrofitted onto generic PMS.

01 The lien clock starts with Notice of Claim at D+10, holds 30 days before Lien Pending at D+40 under NY Lien Law § 182, keeps the auction gate closed until D+45, with citations NY Lien Law § 182(7) and NY Lien Law § 182.
02 The Notice of Claim at D+10 includes the special-proceeding contest path from the policy row, so a contested case can stop before sale under NY Lien Law § 182(7).
03 No newspaper publication is required under NY Lien Law § 182; the sale is governed by a commercial-reasonableness standard instead. Delivery evidence tracks Notice of Claim by in person, certified mail, and verified mail plus email.
04 Surplus requires legal review because statute silent - hold per counsel; NY Abandoned Property Law likely governs unclaimed funds. Run your own payment processor and your own QuickBooks — UnitOps never sits in the middle of either.

Lien evidence packet

Built for the day you get sued.

For New York cases, the packet presents the evidence trail beside the policy snapshot that was pinned when the case opened. It lists notices, delivery proof, ledger entries, photos, and state changes in chronological order. It presents records and citations only. The downloadable sample uses fictional seeded data with redacted names and a SAMPLE watermark.
