Buildings with rent-stabilized apartments near the Q52-SBS bus in Queens

It means the building’s apartments are categorized under rent stabilization rules. Confirm the unit you’re considering is actually rent-stabilized (not just “near stabilized buildings”) and ask the landlord how renewals and changes are handled for that specific apartment.

Buildings are grouped based on their proximity to the Q52-SBS bus corridor for your search, so you can filter and compare nearby options. Still, check walking time from the exact building entrance to your typical stops.

Details can vary by unit even inside the same rent-stabilized building. Lease terms, utilities included vs. billed, laundry access, and any building-specific move-in steps can differ—confirm for the exact apartment you’re applying to.

Ask how renewals are handled for the unit you’re considering, what documentation you’ll receive, and what factors could affect your renewal outcome. If you’re comparing options, request the same information for each building so you’re making a like-for-like decision.

Yes. With rent-stabilized apartments, your total monthly cost can still be affected by deposits, utility arrangements, and building move-in requirements. Ask what costs apply to the specific unit and whether any utilities are separately metered or billed.
