SnagFlat — Rent Stabilization & Apartment Badges

About

SnagFlat adds at-a-glance badges to NYC apartment listings on StreetEasy so you can triage faster — without opening every listing.

THE PRIMARY BADGE: RENT STABILIZATION
For each building, SnagFlat checks public NYC records and tells you whether it's likely rent-stabilized — and WHY. Click a badge to see the basis: registered rent-stabilized units, or a J-51 / 421-a tax benefit that requires stabilization, plus the data source and an honest caveat.

ALSO ON EACH LISTING
• Orientation — which way the building faces, and whether south exposure is even possible
• Sun hours — an estimate of direct sunlight, tailored to the floor
• Street character — a busy/quiet read from the street
• Average unit size — the building's average, from public records

FILTER YOUR SEARCH
On a results page, hide listings by badge — show only rent-stabilized, quiet-street, or sunny ones. Your filters stick across pages.

HONEST BY DESIGN
These are BUILDING-LEVEL signals from public data that can lag reality. SnagFlat won't pretend to know a specific unit's status — when it can't say, it says "unknown." The badges are informational, not legal advice, and not a guarantee of any unit's rent-stabilization status.

PRIVACY
SnagFlat sends only the listing's address (and borough/zip) to our backend to look up the building. No accounts, no tracking, no browsing history, nothing sold. See https://snagflat.com/privacy.
