Apartments in good cause buildings for rent near X38 Sea Gate / Bensonhurst - Midtown Manhattan Express in Manhattan

Good cause refers to a tenant-protection category. It is not a neighborhood, and it does not mean the rent is lower. Use it to look for apartments for rent in buildings that may have limits on certain rent increases or non-renewals, then confirm the lease terms with the agent.

The current snapshot shows 1,720+ apartments for rent in Manhattan near the X38, with a median rent of $5,827. Availability changes often, so compare the asking rent and building details before you apply.

No. Good cause is a protection category, not an affordability program. The asking rent can still be high, and you should still check broker fees, deposits, utilities, and any admin charges.

This page is not using the affordable filter. If you are looking for market-relative affordable apartments, that filter uses asking rents at or below the 25th percentile of gross rents within the page’s scope, not subsidized or income-restricted housing.

Ask whether the building is covered by the good cause rules you expect, how renewals work, and what the full monthly cost will be after fees and utilities. Also check the building reviews on Openigloo for maintenance and management patterns.

Recent demand in this Manhattan scope includes Hell's Kitchen with 388+ apartments for rent, Stuyvesant Town/PCV with 268+ apartments for rent, East Village with 225+ apartments for rent, Kips Bay with 221+ apartments for rent, and Yorkville with 196+ apartments for rent.

A unit can look manageable on asking rent alone, but location, building age, amenities, and lease terms can change the total cost. Factor in monthly fees, utilities, and move-in charges so you can compare apartments for rent on the same basis.
