SnagFlat is a free Chrome extension that adds rent-stabilization badges and property information to NYC StreetEasy listings, helping renters identify stabilized units, building orientation, sunlight exposure, and street character. The tool prioritizes transparency by clearly noting data limitations and distinguishing between confirmed, unknown, and unavailable information.
San Francisco's rental market is increasingly unaffordable, with record rents exceeding $3,700–$4,500 monthly in 2026. While a New York Times article focused on six-figure tech workers struggling to find apartments, data shows rental affordability is primarily a crisis for low-income households, with 83.8% of bottom-quintile renters spending over 30% of income on housing.
