Rent-stabilized studio apartments for rent near 103 St

It means the apartments shown are tagged as rent-stabilized, which is a regulatory category that can limit some rent increases and renewal terms. It does not mean the apartment is affordable housing or that every cost is controlled.

There are 41+ apartments for rent in this search right now. The median rent is $4,238, so it is worth comparing each asking rent to that benchmark before you decide.

No. Rent-stabilized is not the same as income-restricted, subsidized, housing-lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 housing. It is a market rental filter tied to regulation, not an official affordable-housing program.

Openigloo uses the rent-stabilized status attached to a building or unit in the available data. That lets you focus on apartments that may have regulated renewal rules, but you still need to verify the lease terms with the landlord or agent.

Ask about the deposit, application fees, broker fee if there is one, lease length, renewal terms, and whether utilities are included. Those costs can change the real monthly price much more than the asking rent alone.

Location near transit, building age, amenities, and lease terms all affect price. A lower asking rent can still be costly once you add fees, utilities, and any required deposits.

Since this search is for studio apartments, make sure the rent works with a one-room layout, limited storage, and the cost of living with one bathroom and shared cooking space. The asking rent is only one part of the monthly budget.
