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

It’s a tenant-protection filter focused on limiting certain rent increases and non-renewals for eligible buildings. Still confirm the specific renewal and increase language in the lease paperwork for the unit you’re considering.

Does “near the 2 train” mean a guaranteed walking distance?

No. It’s a location-based filter. Use the building’s address and check your own preferred stops and walking time before you commit to viewings.

How is Openigloo helping me evaluate these buildings beyond photos?

You’ll get building-level signals plus renter-first context like tenant Q&A. Use these to shortlist, then verify details with the landlord or managing agent in writing.

What costs should I budget for in addition to the asking rent?

Plan for the full monthly and move-in picture, including deposits and any building-required fees, plus utilities or other charges that can apply depending on the unit.

Is a good-cause filter the same as income-restricted or subsidized housing?

No. Good-cause housing is not the same as income-restricted housing, and it’s not subsidized housing, not NYCHA, not HPD, and not Section 8 or a housing-lottery/affordable-housing program.

Can the building still raise rent or change terms even if it’s in the good-cause category?

The filter indicates tenant protections for eligible situations, but details depend on the lease and the specific circumstances. Ask the building directly about the unit’s renewal terms and any planned changes.
