Start with the asking rent, then add broker fee, security deposit, utilities, and any building charges. A 2-bedroom also needs enough space for two bedrooms, storage, and a workable common area if you are sharing the unit.

Confirm the lease length, renewal terms, any fee schedule, and whether the building’s tenant-protection status applies to the specific unit you want. Ask how rent increases are handled at renewal and whether any required notices are part of the lease process.

Location near the J Train, building age, amenities, lease terms, broker fees, and move-in costs all change the real monthly cost. Two apartments with the same asking rent can still cost very differently once fees and utilities are included.
