Rent-stabilized 2-bedroom apartments for rent near M7 Harlem - 14th Street in Kips Bay, Manhattan

It means the apartments shown are tagged as rent-stabilized, a regulatory category tied to renewal protections and limits on certain rent increases. It is not the same as affordable housing or a housing lottery unit.

There are 23+ apartments for rent on this page. Because this is a 2-bedroom search, it is useful for households that want to balance total rent, room layout, and commute needs.

The median rent is $7,039. Use that as a planning benchmark, but your actual monthly cost can be higher once you add fees, utilities, deposits, and any broker fee.

No. Rent-stabilized is a market regulation category, not an income-restricted or subsidized housing program. The apartments still rent at market rates, and the asking rent can be above what many households consider affordable.

Openigloo uses the rent-stabilized tag associated with the apartment and surfaces it within this search scope. You should still confirm the status in the lease and with the agent, since the rent rule and renewal terms matter.

Ask whether there is a broker fee, how much the security deposit is, what utilities are included, and whether the apartment has any lease clauses that affect renewal or move-in timing.

Location near transit, building age, unit size, amenities, and lease terms all affect the asking rent. A 2-bedroom also means the total budget depends on how you split the space and the monthly cost you can sustain.
