Is a coop apartment a single family residence under the lien law?

Yes. New York courts regularly treat co-op apartments as single-family residences. As a result, the deadline to file a mechanics lien against a co-op unit would be within 4 months of the completion of the contact or the final furnishing of work.

Co-ops are different from condos in that they are legally structured as non-profit corporations, with shares and membership rights in the corporation vesting in each shareholder who buys an apartment. Go to https://www.nyrentownsell.com/blog/co-op-apartment/ this site to learn a lot more.
