Property Details

I’m looking for someone to take over my lease for a cozy 2 bed, 1 bath apartment on the UES (78th and York Ave) starting ASAP. The room is $1,465/month per person ($2,930 the entire monthly rent) all utilities included, and the lease runs through October 31, 2025, with an option to renew.

About the apartment:

• The apartment is bright and welcoming, with a room that fits a full bed, dresser, and desk.

• Laundry only for residents is conveniently located on the block.

• 10-15 minute walk to the Q and the 6.

• The neighborhood is fantastic—tree-lined streets, close to parks, and full of great restaurants, bars, and cafes!

• Rent stabilized

Incentives

- The apartment will come fully furnished except for the room available for rent (the room is now completely empty)

Additional fee

- ALL UTILITIES INCLUDED (except internet)
- No security deposit required
- Rent Stabilized
- Option for renewal at the end of the lease
- Must meet the following financial requirements:
1. The tenant must make 40x the entire monthly rent (not just the half you would be paying). In this case, the rent for the room is $1,465 and the entire monthly rent for the apartment is $2,930. So the incoming tenant must make aprox. $117k
2. If the incoming tenant is unable to meet the requirement above, they may apply with a personal guarantor (up to 2 people) that make 80-100x the entire monthly rent (aprox. $234k+)
3. If the incoming tenant is unable to have a personal guarantor, they may apply with a corporate/third party guarantor.
