First, the warranty applies to a “lease or rental agreement”. Since the amount of u and o was set by stipulation of the parties, it should be considered a “rental agreement” for purposes of section 235-b. Second, subdivision 2 makes waiver of the warranty void, when made by a lessee or tenant. Therefore, it appears that an occupant paying u and o could agree to waive the benefits of the section; however, there was no evidence that occupant did make such a waiver.
