What does “low-rent-increases” mean on this page?

It’s a filter for buildings with tenant-protection / rent-increase safeguards under the category “low-rent-increases.” The building still matters for specifics, so confirm renewal rules and any documentation or timelines with the landlord or managing agent.

How does the “M1 bus” part of the search work?

The filter narrows to buildings near the M1 bus route in South Harlem. Transit proximity can vary block to block, so confirm your closest stop and typical walking time for your schedule.

Are these buildings income-restricted, subsidized, NYCHA, or Section 8?

No. This page is about the renter-eligibility filter (low-rent-increase category) and location. It is not income-restricted housing, not subsidized housing, not NYCHA, and not Section 8 (and not a housing-lottery program).

Do the “low rent increases” protections guarantee the same rent for every lease?

No. Protections limit or regulate certain increases, but rent can still change based on lease terms, unit status, and renewal conditions. Ask for the renewal / rent-adjustment language in writing.

What should I verify before paying a deposit or applying?

Ask about the full fee schedule (deposit, broker fee if applicable, any move-in fees), utilities responsibility, required documentation, and whether there are any restrictions that affect your application (income, guarantors, or timing).

Does Openigloo show everything I need to know about a building’s rent-increase history?

Openigloo provides building-level signals and renter-focused context, but it’s not a substitute for getting written answers from management. Use the page to narrow the search, then confirm the exact details directly with the building.
