A Nolita landlord who took the drastic step of hiring a private eye to catch a tenant illegally subletting her apartment has finally won his eviction battle against her.
Tenant Amy Parness, 38, finally agreed to surrender her rent-stabilized one-bedroom pad last week after the landlord’s spy caught yet another illegal subletter staying there.
A Housing Court judge had already explicitly warned Parness that only immediate family members could occupy the unit.
“We successfully shut down Amy Parness’ lucrative hotel operation,” landlord Ken Podziba crowed to The Post.
Podziba and his sister, Susan, who co-owns the building, shelled out $20,000 to hire the detective to install surveillance equipment.
To help catch Parness — who is married to a Parsons professor — Susan Podziba also tracked down the deed to the tenant’s primary residence: a gabled, two-story, five-bedroom home in tony Montclair, NJ.
Ken Podziba said Parness had been renting the $1,400-a-month apartment to visitors at $220 a night for the past four years, raking in up to $500,000.
Amy Parness did not return messages. Her husband, Ariel Churi, reached at their home, declined to comment.
