What does rent-stabilized mean?

Rent-stabilized is a regulatory category that can limit some rent increases and provide renewal protections. Confirm the unit’s status, lease terms, and any rider before applying.

Is this income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery housing?

No. Rent-stabilized on Openigloo is not the same as income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery housing. It is a regulatory status tied to rent rules and renewal protections, not an official affordable-housing program.

How do the 1-bedroom count and median rent help with budgeting?

With 25 apartments for rent and a median rent of $5,794, you can estimate the typical price point for a 1-bedroom in this scope and compare it with your total monthly budget.

What should I confirm before I apply?

Confirm the rent-stabilized status, building review details, application fees, broker fee if any, security deposit, move-in date, utilities, and any lease renewal rules.

What factors can affect affordability here?

Location within Midtown East, building age, amenities, rent-stabilized status, and lease terms can all affect the asking rent and your total monthly cost.
