What does rent-stabilized mean on this page?

It means the apartments shown are tagged as rent-stabilized, a regulatory category that can limit certain rent increases and affect renewal terms. It does not remove the need to check the lease and unit-specific details.

How many rent-stabilized apartments for rent are in DUMBO right now?

There are 31 rent-stabilized apartments for rent in DUMBO right now. Inventory can change quickly, so the live count may move after the snapshot.

What is the median rent for this page?

The median rent is $6,602. Use that as a reference point, but compare each apartment's asking rent, fees, and lease terms before deciding.

Is rent-stabilized housing the same as affordable housing?

No. Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category, not an income-restricted or subsidized housing program. These apartments are not the same as housing-lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 units.

How is the rent-stabilized threshold decided on Openigloo?

Openigloo uses the rent-stabilized filter as a housing-status category, not a price formula. It shows apartments marked as rent-stabilized within this scope, while the asking rent, lease terms, and unit rules still need to be verified.

What should I confirm before applying to a rent-stabilized apartment?

Ask about lease renewal terms, who is named on the lease, any building fees, and whether the unit's rent-stabilized status is documented. Also confirm move-in costs like security deposit, broker fee, and utilities.

Why do building and landlord details matter here?

Rent-stabilized status does not tell you how a building is managed. Reviews and building-level patterns can help you spot issues with repairs, communication, or move-in timing before you commit.

DUMBO's apartment market here is centered on 1-bedrooms and 2-bedrooms, with 31 apartments for rent in this rent-stabilized scope.

The average rent increase is 10.0% based on 25 relisted units, which points to building-level pricing pressure even when unit details differ (building-level trends; individual units can differ)
