No. Good cause is a market protection category, not income-restricted, subsidized, or lottery housing. The apartments still rent at market rates, and the full monthly cost can include fees, utilities, deposits, or broker fees.

This page is not using Openigloo’s affordable filter. For reference, Openigloo’s affordable filter is market-relative: it uses asking rents at or below the 25th percentile of gross rents for the page’s scope, not an official affordable-housing program.

Confirm the lease term, move-in fees, security deposit, utility responsibility, and whether the building’s good cause status affects renewal or rent increase rules for your unit.

Location, building age, amenities, lease length, broker fees, and whether utilities are included can all change the real monthly cost even when the asking rent looks manageable.
