Good cause buildings near the Q86 bus in NYC

It’s a tenant-protection category that applies to certain building/lease situations. It focuses on limits tied to non-renewals and certain rent increase scenarios, but the exact effect can vary by unit and contract.

304+ buildings on Openigloo are currently included in this Q86 + good-cause scope (as of 2026-07-07).

No. Good cause is not the same as income-restricted housing, subsidy programs, NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or a housing-lottery program.

Ask for the specific lease terms that apply to your unit (renewal language and how increases are handled), and confirm what policies are actually used in practice for renewals and notices.

No. “Near” is based on the building’s location relative to the Q86 route, but actual door-to-door time depends on your walking route and the stop you choose.

The filter helps you find buildings, but you still need to read the unit/building details for the full monthly cost and move-in requirements (broker fee, deposit, utilities, and any building charges).

Use them to compare options, then confirm directly with the building. Tenant Q&A and reviews help you spot patterns, but conditions can change and unit-level differences still apply.
