What does “good cause” mean for renters on this page?

It’s a tenant-protection filter intended to flag buildings where limits apply to certain rent increases and non-renewals. Still, rules can vary by unit and lease language, so confirm the exact renewal and rent-change terms with the building.

How does “near colleges” work here?

It’s a proximity-based scope that focuses your search on Upper West Side buildings near college areas. Treat it as a location/commute filter; you’ll still want to ask about noise, street conditions, and lease terms for the specific unit.

Are these buildings rent-stabilized or automatically covered by good cause?

Not automatically. This page is scoped by the good-cause filter plus the college proximity filter, but coverage can depend on the specific building and unit. Verify eligibility and renewal protections with management.

How do I use Openigloo to compare these buildings?

Start with the building’s rated building score and renter context on Openigloo, then compare what’s currently available. Before signing, confirm key lease terms (renewal timing, rent-change language, and notice requirements) directly with the building.

What should I ask the landlord or super about before I sign?

Ask what protections apply to your specific unit, how renewals work in practice, and whether any exceptions apply. Also ask for the exact move-in cost breakdown (deposit, fees, and which utilities are included) and the timeline for receiving keys or access.

Is there any reason to double-check “good cause” details even if a building matches the filter?

Yes. Tenant protections involve legal and unit-level specifics, and lease language matters. Use the filter to narrow choices, then confirm the renewal and rent-change terms for the exact unit you want.
