What does the “good cause” filter mean on Openigloo?

It’s a tenant-protection category used in the building results. It’s meant to flag buildings where the “good cause” framework applies, but you should still confirm the specific renewal and rent-increase handling with the landlord or management for the unit.

How does the Q80 bus part of the filter work?

It narrows building search to the Kew Gardens area around the Q80 bus corridor. Use it to reduce commute guesswork, then confirm the exact stop closest to the unit during scheduling.

How many eligible buildings are in this scope?

There are 107+ buildings in Kew Gardens that match this filter pair right now.

Are these “good cause” buildings income-restricted or part of a housing-lottery program?

No. The good-cause category is not the same as income-restricted housing, subsidized housing, NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or a housing-lottery / affordable-housing program. The building still needs to be evaluated for the specific unit’s terms.

What should I confirm before applying or signing?

Confirm unit-specific lease terms, renewal expectations under good-cause rules, the rent schedule (including any increases), and all upfront requirements like deposits or broker terms.

Do I still need to ask about fees and move-in costs if the rent looks reasonable?

Yes. The full monthly cost and move-in requirements matter beyond the asking rent—utilities, deposit, and any broker fee if applicable can change your total budget.

Which neighborhoods are trending right now in this scope?

Hunters Point with 2,110+ buildings; Ridgewood with 3,826+ buildings; Sunnyside with 1,960+ buildings; Ditmars-Steinway with 2,222+ buildings; Forest Hills with 1,363+ buildings.
