What to check before choosing an affordable building in NYC

  • Expect market-relative affordable rents, which means the building's median asking rent is below the neighborhood's median.
  • Verify the full monthly cost including broker fees, deposits, and utilities, which can affect affordability.
  • Confirm whether the building allows pets and inquire about any associated fees or restrictions.
  • Understand that affordable buildings may still have lease terms and conditions that differ from typical rentals.
  • Research open violations and tenant complaints to gauge building conditions before signing a lease.
