How many buildings are eligible in Midtown South right now?

There are 22+ eligible buildings on this page in Midtown South that match the 2 train + low-rent-increases filter pair.

Are “low rent increases” the same thing as rent-stabilized protections?

Not necessarily. This page uses the Openigloo low-rent-increases signal, which is about observed rent-increase patterns in the dataset. You should still confirm the unit’s regulatory status and renewal terms directly with the building.

How should I use ratings and tenant Q&A here?

Use them as screening signals, not as a substitute for a lease review. Look for repeated themes in renter questions, and use the rated-building score as a starting point for which buildings to tour first.

What should I confirm before signing a lease for these buildings?

Ask about renewal and rent-change expectations for your specific unit, along with move-in costs and any deposits or fees. Also confirm what’s included in rent (utilities, building services) so you can compare true monthly totals.

Do these filters guarantee how my rent will change?

No. Filters indicate patterns in the available data, but rent outcomes can vary by unit, lease structure, and building practices. Always request the most current guidance from the building for the specific apartment you’re considering.
