Most guides to moving here were written before 2025, and the rules changed underneath them.
Who pays broker fees changed. Security deposit and application fee caps changed. Tenant protections that once applied only to rent-stabilized apartments now reach much further. If you are budgeting from older advice, you are budgeting thousands you probably do not owe.
This is the current version. 112 pages, ten sections, fifteen neighborhood profiles, three appendices.
What is inside
The two numbers landlords screen you against, and the full landing-cash breakdown Every borough ranked by what you can pay rather than by reputation Fifteen neighborhoods in detail, with rents, commutes, and honest trade-offs What the lease actually says, and what no lease clause can waive The free records request that reveals whether an apartment is rent-stabilized The insurance certificate requirement that stops moving trucks at the door Checklists organized by when you need them, from ninety days out to your first weekHow it is written
Every section carries a worked table you fill in with your own figures, a description of one specific way people lose money at that stage, and four actions you can finish this week.One continuous example runs throughout, so you can watch a single realistic budget survive contact with the actual city.
Educational material only. Not legal, tax, or financial advice. Every dollar figure is illustrative rather than a quote, prediction, or guarantee. Housing law changes; verify current rules against official sources before acting.
