Every listing here is cross-referenced against the New York State DHCR building registry, the official list of buildings containing rent-stabilized units. A match means the building appears in that registry, not that the specific unit is rent-stabilized or that it carries a promised legal rent. Stabilization status is set at the building level, and individual apartments can vary. Always verify a unit's status and rent history directly with DHCR before signing a lease.

FAQs
Common questions
- What does "rent-stabilized" mean?
- Rent stabilization is a New York State system that limits annual rent increases and gives tenants protections like automatic lease renewal, generally covering buildings of 6 or more units built before January 1, 1974, plus certain buildings receiving tax benefits. It applies at the building level: a building can contain rent-stabilized units, but individual apartments within it can still be non-stabilized depending on their history. Leaseswap never claims a specific unit is rent-stabilized, only that its building appears in the DHCR registry of buildings containing rent-stabilized units.
- How does Leaseswap verify rent-stabilized buildings?
- Every listing address is cross-referenced against the New York State Division of Homes and Community Renewal (DHCR) building registry, the official list of buildings containing rent-stabilized units. A match means the building appears in that registry, not that the specific listed apartment carries stabilized status or a specific legal rent. Renters should always verify a unit’s status and rent history directly with DHCR before signing a lease.
- How often is this list updated?
- Listing inventory updates continuously as new units post and existing ones are taken. The DHCR building registry match is re-run as part of Leaseswap’s enrichment pipeline, and the counts on this page reflect live search results, not a static snapshot.
- How do I get alerts for new rent-stabilized listings?
- Create a free Leaseswap search alert with the rent-stabilized filter turned on, and you will get notified as soon as a new listing in a DHCR-registered building matches your borough, budget, and bedroom count.
- Is a rent-stabilized apartment the same as rent-controlled?
- No. Rent control applies only where a tenant or successor has occupied continuously since before July 1, 1971, a small and shrinking pool, typically in pre-1947 buildings. Rent stabilization is the much larger system and is what this page tracks. Both limit rent increases, but they are governed by different rules.
- What is the difference between "listed as rent-stabilized" and a DHCR building match?
- They are two different signals. "Listed as rent-stabilized" means the poster describes the specific unit as rent-stabilized in the listing copy, an unverified, unit-level claim that Leaseswap has not confirmed. A "DHCR building match" means Leaseswap cross-referenced the building address against the official DHCR registry of buildings containing rent-stabilized units, a verified but building-level signal, since individual apartments within a matched building can still be non-stabilized. A listing can carry either signal, both, or neither. Renters should always verify a specific unit's status and rent history directly with DHCR before signing a lease.
