Question 1

How can I find rent-stabilized apartments in NYC on a map?

Accepted Answer

Buzzedin aggregates rent-stabilized listings from StreetEasy, LeaseBreak, NYBits, and Reddit and plots them on an interactive NYC map. Each pin shows the monthly rent; filters separate rent-stabilized units from lease takeovers and the most underpriced deals. Approximately one million NYC apartments are rent-stabilized under New York State law.

Question 2

What qualifies an apartment as rent-stabilized in NYC?

Accepted Answer

Coverage generally includes buildings of 6 or more units built between February 1, 1947 and December 31, 1973, plus tenants in buildings built before February 1, 1947 who moved in after June 30, 1971 and certain tax-benefit buildings (421-a, J-51, and others). Renewal increases are set annually by the NYC Rent Guidelines Board and depend on when the lease commences: 3% for one-year and 4.5% for two-year leases commencing October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2026 (Order 57), and 0% for both one-year and two-year leases commencing October 1, 2026 through September 30, 2027 (Order 58, adopted June 25, 2026). Stabilized tenants have a right to lease renewal.

Question 3

Is the Buzzedin map updated in real time?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Buzzedin ingests new listings from StreetEasy, LeaseBreak, NYBits, and Reddit continuously and refreshes the map with each mode selection. Active listings only; sold and rented apartments drop off automatically.
