Good cause buildings near the BX17 bus in Fordham

It’s a tenant protection filter focused on reducing certain landlord actions around rent increases and non-renewals. Policies can still vary by building and lease structure, so confirm the details in writing for the specific apartment you’re considering.

This scope targets buildings near the BX17 bus corridor. Still, stop locations and walking routes matter, so check the closest stop(s) and typical walk time during the hours you’d be commuting.

This page is driven by the good-cause category, which is not the same as rent-stabilized status. It also is not income-restricted, subsidized, NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or a housing-lottery / affordable-housing program.

Ask for the full monthly cost (including any required fees/deposits and what utilities cover), the renewal/increase terms applicable to your lease, and the expected maintenance and repair process.

No. The filter helps narrow the regulatory category, but building upkeep, responsiveness, and unit-level details can still differ. Use Openigloo tenant Q&A as a starting point, then verify with the building directly.
