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

It’s a tenant-protection category based on NYC “good cause” rules that can limit certain rent increases and non-renewals compared with other situations. Always confirm how it would apply to the specific building, unit, and lease.

How does the “near schools” filter work?

It flags buildings using location proximity to schools. Treat it as a guide for likely access, then double-check the specific school, catchment, and your planned arrival times.

Are these buildings guaranteed to be close enough for my child’s specific school?

No. Proximity signals don’t guarantee school assignment or real-world walk/commute times. Verify eligibility, zones, and routes with the school district and test the travel time at the hours you’ll use most.

How can I use Openigloo to evaluate a building beyond the filters?

Openigloo aggregates building reviews and renter Q&A, plus open-data signals. Use those to check consistency (maintenance responsiveness, noise, and policies), then ask targeted questions during viewings.

What should I ask the building about good cause before signing?

Ask how the protections apply to the unit and lease, what kinds of rent changes are expected, and the process for renewals. Request answers in writing where possible, and keep a copy of all lease addenda.

Does being near schools affect my application or lease terms?

It might in practical ways (traffic patterns, noise expectations, package drop-offs, and schedules), but the filter itself doesn’t set lease terms. Verify building policies that matter to your routine—especially entry, deliveries, and any construction/renovation plans.

How should I think about costs when comparing these buildings?

Don’t rely on asking rent alone. Budget for the full monthly cost (including broker fee, deposit requirements, utilities, and recurring building fees), and compare those totals alongside lease constraints tied to good cause.
