Rent-Stabilized 2-Bedroom in Prime Williamsburg — Private Balcony, Skyline Views, and Great Natural Sunlight

I'm posting hoping to find someone to take over the lease of my rent-stabilized 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment in Williamsburg located at 125 Borinquen Pl, Brooklyn NY. The apartment is located on the 5th floor (with four reliable elevators serving the whole building)

I've lived here for 3 years and genuinely love living here, but I'm relocating to move in with my partner to start the next chapter of our life together.

The lease term would be from July 13, 2026 - May 31, 2027.

One of the biggest advantages of this apartment is that it is rent-stabilized, meaning future rent increases are regulated by NYC guidelines rather than market conditions. To give a real-world example, my rent increased by just 2.75% when I renewed this lease, whereas market-rate apartments in the area saw increases of approximately 10–15% over the same period. In a neighborhood where rents can rise significantly between lease renewals, rent stabilization provides valuable long-term predictability and protection.

Please DM me (or leave a comment) with any questions or to schedule a tour. I'm happy to show the apartment in person or arrange a virtual tour via FaceTime, WhatsApp, etc.
