Good cause buildings near the S98 bus in NYC

“Good cause” is a tenant-protection category that helps identify buildings subject to limits related to certain rent increases and non-renewals. It does not automatically describe how every specific lease renewal will work for every unit—confirm details with the building.

The page is scoped by the S98 bus corridor, so buildings included should be in the nearby area of that transit line based on Openigloo’s location matching. Still, check your exact stop and walking route before applying.

No. The filter is about tenant-protection rules and categories, not a promise about any single lease outcome. Ask management what rent-change rules apply to your specific unit and renewal scenario.

Usually, you’ll still go through standard screening (income/credit requirements where applicable) and may need documentation. The good cause filter affects tenant-protection eligibility, not whether a building can require application paperwork.

Compare practical terms: current availability, total move-in costs (deposit/fees/utilities expectations), lease start date flexibility, and what tenant Q&A and review themes say about maintenance and responsiveness.

Check the lease term and any renewal language for your exact unit. Use Openigloo context to flag questions, then confirm renewal timing and process directly with the management office.

No. “Good cause” is a regulatory tenant-protection category, not income-restricted housing, not subsidized housing, and not NYCHA/HPD/Section 8 or a housing-lottery program.
