Rent-stabilized apartments for rent near Metropolitan Av

It means the apartments are tagged as rent-stabilized, a regulatory category tied to limits on certain rent increases and renewal protections. It does not tell you everything about the unit, so confirm the status and lease terms for the specific apartment.

There are 44+ apartments for rent in this page’s current inventory, with a median rent of $4,730. Availability can change quickly, especially for units near a transit stop.

No. Rent-stabilized is not the same as income-restricted, subsidized, lottery, NYCHA, HPD, or Section 8 housing. It is a market rent category with tenant protections, so the asking rent can still be above or below your budget depending on the unit.

Openigloo uses the rent-stabilized filter to surface apartments tagged that way, but you should still confirm the apartment’s status with the agent, lease paperwork, and any available building records before applying.

Plan for the full monthly cost and move-in cost: broker fee, application fee, security deposit, utilities, and any building-specific charges. Those costs can change what the apartment really fits in your budget.

Start with the $4,730 median rent, then check whether the unit’s asking rent, fees, and lease terms fit your monthly budget. Rent-stabilized units can still vary a lot by size, condition, and building quality.
