"It is the holy grail of New York City living: the rent-stabilized apartment." The bold statement by the NYTimes earlier this week may ring true for many New Yorkers. You've heard about them, but where can you find them?
As our blog 6sqft discusses, "The rules and regulations surrounding rent stabilization are complicated on a good day–and they’re frequently exploited. Knowing the facts and where to find information on your apartment can help you get the most from regulations that were intended to provide some of the affordable housing the city needs so badly." Both the NYT write-up and 6sqft offer great advice - but in the meantime, we'll get to the goods. Here is a selection of rent-stabilized listings currently available, and don't miss the full map at the bottom.
