rent regulated developments

The rent regulation doesn't apply to individually-owned condo units. You can charge whatever you can get.

TOP - you mis-read. Tax-abated new RENTAL buildings, yes.

thanks. looking to buy and doing some reserach. i guess it's safe to venture out into the waters again. it certainly was confusing reading. I looked at the dop and dept of housing and preservation website and links. And, they all basically said:

All rental units become subject to rent stabilization for the duration of the benefits, with initial rents set by the Tax Incentive Programs (TIP).

So, by rental units they mean rental buildings. Thanks folks. off on my hunt again. i hope to one day grow up and be like some of you here.:)
