What does “3-train + good-cause” mean on this page?

It combines a location filter (near the 3 train) with the regulatory/tenant-protection category “good cause,” which is designed to limit certain rent increases and non-renewals. You should still confirm how those rules are applied in the specific lease and renewal for the unit you’re considering.

How many buildings match these filters in Central Harlem?

There are 1,149+ buildings on Openigloo that match both filters right now.

Does “good cause” guarantee the rent won’t increase or that you’ll always get renewed?

No. It’s a category that shapes what landlords can do in certain situations, but unit-specific lease terms and renewal circumstances still matter. Always review the offer and ask direct questions about renewal expectations for the exact unit.

What should I ask the landlord or super before applying?

Ask how renewals work for the specific apartment, how rent increases are handled, and what documentation is required to move in. Also ask about maintenance response times and any building processes that affect tenants day to day.

Where does the building rating come from?

Openigloo’s rating on this page is based on 99 rated buildings in Central Harlem, expressed as an average of 3.1/5. Ratings reflect that sample, not every unit in every building.

Are there fees or costs I should budget for beyond the monthly rent?

Yes. Even when focusing on eligible buildings, you’ll typically want to budget for deposits and any application/move-in fees, and verify any utility or additional costs that apply to the unit.

Which neighborhoods are trending in this scope right now?

East Village with 11,857+ buildings; Hell’s Kitchen with 6,943+ buildings; Yorkville with 9,328+ buildings; Lenox Hill with 8,357+ buildings; Kips Bay with 4,472+ buildings.
