(c) With respect to any leased premises for which there is no record
of security deposit pursuant to subparagraph (i) or (ii) of paragraph
(b) of this subdivision, the grantee or assignee of the leased premises
shall be obligated to notify the tenant thereof in writing no later than
thirty days following the closing or other transfer of title to the fact
that there is no record of a security deposit for said leased premises
and that unless the tenant within thirty days after receiving notice
provides him or it with documentary evidence of deposit, the tenant
shall have no further recourse against him or it for said security
deposit. For purposes of this subdivision, "documentary evidence" shall
be limited to any cancelled check drawn to the order of, a receipt from,
or a lease signed by any predecessor in interest, if such predecessor's
interest in the leased premises existed on or after the effective date
of this section. Except as otherwise provided by subparagraphs (i) and
(ii) of paragraph (b) of this subdivision the grantee or assignee of the
leased premises shall not be charged with actual knowledge of the
security deposit where the tenant fails within the thirty-day period to
provide said documentary evidence. Where the grantee or assignee of the
leased premises fails to notify the tenant as specified in this
paragraph within thirty days following the closing or other transfer of
title, the tenant shall be entitled to produce documentary evidence at
any time.
