What does “good cause” mean for buildings in this Lower East Side page?

“Good cause” is a tenant-protection category. It’s meant to narrow results to buildings where certain non-renewal and rent increase practices may be limited, but you should still verify how it applies to your exact unit and lease terms with the building.

How does the “near transit” filter work here?

It narrows buildings to those located near subway access so you can spend less time commuting. Treat it as a starting point, then confirm walking time to the entrances and whether the lines match your routine.

Are Openigloo ratings the same as tenant reviews for these buildings?

Openigloo rating scores are based on rated buildings within this scope. Use the rating as a quick signal, and then rely on the underlying tenant Q&A and details to understand what might affect your unit experience.

What should I double-check before applying or signing?

Request unit-specific confirmation of how good-cause protections apply, ask about renewal/renewal timing, confirm move-in costs and requirements (deposit, documentation, and any application steps), and review building policies that can impact daily life.

Do the filters guarantee a particular outcome for my lease or eligibility?

No. Filters help you narrow the search, but actual lease terms, renewal circumstances, and eligibility requirements depend on the specific unit and documentation. Always confirm directly with management.
