No. Good cause is not an official affordable-housing program. It is a market and legal protection category, so the asking rent can still be at market levels and should be compared against the full monthly cost.

Location near East River Route, building age, amenities, lease terms, broker fees, deposits, and utility costs can all change the real monthly cost even when the asking rent looks manageable.

Ask whether the unit is in a covered building, what rent increases or renewal rules apply, whether there are extra fees, and whether pets, roommates, or subletting have special restrictions.
