What does “good cause” mean on this page?

It refers to a tenant-protection regulatory category. The filter is meant to help you find buildings where good-cause protections may apply, but the exact coverage can depend on the unit and circumstances—confirm details with the building or managing agent.

How does “near transit” work here?

It’s a location filter designed to surface buildings close to transit. Use Openigloo to shortlist, then verify the specific route, walking time, and last-mile options for your commute.

How many buildings match these filters right now?

Openigloo currently shows 51,154+ buildings that match the “good cause” and “near transit” combination.

Do I still need to confirm lease terms and protections with the landlord?

Yes. Even with the filters, confirm the lease term, renewal expectations, and how the good-cause rules are applied to your specific unit. Get answers in writing when possible.

What fees should I budget for beyond the rent?

Ask about deposit amounts, any move-in or application fees, and which utilities you’ll pay. Your total monthly cost can change based on utilities and one-time charges.

What if a building shows availability but I can’t get clear answers about protections or eligibility?

That’s a red flag. Request written confirmation of how good-cause protections apply to the targeted unit, and document responses from the managing agent.

Does Openigloo’s info replace asking questions on tours?

No. Use Openigloo to narrow down buildings quickly, then validate the practical details during tours and in follow-up questions—especially anything related to renewal, maintenance, and day-to-day building rules.
