What does “good cause” mean for these Ocean Hill buildings?

“Good cause” is a tenant-protection category focused on limiting certain rent increases and non-renewals. Because details can depend on the building and unit, ask the leasing office to explain how the rules apply to your specific lease.

How should I use “near transit” when comparing buildings?

Treat it as a starting point for location convenience. Still verify the walk time to the stop you’d use most, service frequency for your hours, and whether routes change during outages or construction.

Do the building ratings on Openigloo reflect units I could rent?

Openigloo ratings shown here come from rated buildings. They’re a useful signal, but they’re not a guarantee for any particular unit—confirm noise, layout, utilities, and responsiveness with the landlord or super.

What should I ask during a tour for a “good cause” lease?

Ask for the renewal terms in writing, how rent changes are handled, what notices are used, and what your options are if the landlord proposes changes. Bring up any timing concerns you have before signing.

Are there extra costs I should plan for even if rent looks reasonable?

Yes. Besides monthly rent, plan for full move-in costs such as deposit and broker fee (if applicable), plus any required documentation or upfront charges. Confirm the full schedule before you pay anything.
