What does “good cause” mean on this East Harlem building page?

“Good cause” is a tenant-protection filter tied to limits on certain rent increases and non-renewals. Still, you should verify the exact renewal and increase language that applies to the specific unit and lease.

How does the “near the M98 bus” filter work for buildings?

It narrows the building set to those located along the M98 bus corridor/near the route, so your search reflects commute convenience. Always confirm walking time and schedule reliability for your typical trip.

Are these buildings the same as affordable, subsidized, or NYCHA housing?

No. This page is focused on the good-cause category and location. It is not income-restricted housing, not subsidized, not NYCHA, not HPD, and not a Section 8 or housing-lottery / affordable-housing program.

What should I check before applying for a unit in a good-cause building?

Confirm the renewal and rent-increase terms in writing for your specific lease, ask about application requirements, and verify any move-in costs (fees, deposits, and what utilities are included).

How reliable are the building ratings I see on Openigloo?

Ratings are based on rated buildings for East Harlem (3.2/5 across 92 rated buildings). They’re useful for comparisons, but they don’t replace confirming details directly with the building.

Does the M98-area location guarantee an easier commute?

It helps, but schedules, service changes, and walk times vary by stop. Check your route during your usual commute hours and confirm that the building’s location works for your walking/transfer plan.
