Rent-stabilized 1-bedroom apartments for rent near M55 W 44 St - South Ferry in Kips Bay, Manhattan

It means the apartments on this page are tagged as rent-stabilized, which generally points to regulated rent increases and renewal protections. It does not remove the need to review the lease, rent history, or building rules for each unit.

There are 47+ apartments for rent in this scope, and the median rent is $5,162. Use both numbers together: the count tells you how much choice you have, and the median gives you a quick sense of the current price level for 1-bedroom apartments.

No. Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category, not an income-restricted or subsidized housing program. These are market-rate apartments with rules around how rents can change and how renewals work.

This filter is about rent regulation, not affordability programs. A rent-stabilized apartment can still be expensive, and you should still compare the asking rent, broker fee, deposit, and monthly utilities before deciding.

Start with the $5,162 median rent, then check the actual asking rent for the unit, the number of 1-bedroom apartments available, and your move-in costs. For a one-bedroom, the layout, storage, and whether the kitchen and living area feel usable can matter as much as the headline rent.

Confirm the rent-stabilized status in writing, ask about renewal rules, security deposit, broker fee, utilities, and any lease clauses that affect rent increases or occupancy. Full monthly cost matters more than asking rent alone.
