What to check before choosing a good cause building in Manhattan

Understand that good cause buildings have protections against excessive rent increases and provide security during lease renewals.
Confirm the specific protections applicable to each building, as they can vary based on the property's regulations and management.
Ensure you inquire about any additional fees that might apply beyond the monthly rent, such as maintenance charges or utilities.
Check if there are any tenant relationship aspects, such as communication channels with building management or maintenance response times.
Evaluate lease terms closely, particularly regarding renewal conditions and rent stabilization rules.
