Filed construction activity

Rent-stabilization signals

YesBuilt before 1974 (1931)
NoSix or more residential units (2)
No421-a / J-51 tax benefit on the current tax roll

1 of 3 signals present. Only a partial profile — stabilization is possible but less likely. The definitive answer for any unit: request its rent history from NYS Homes & Community Renewal (free, at hcr.ny.gov).
