Good cause buildings near the SIM32 bus in NYC

It’s a tenant-protection category intended to flag buildings where certain rules around rent increases and non-renewals are more limited than in other situations. Specific protections and how they apply can depend on the unit and lease, so confirm with the building.

It’s a location filter designed to surface buildings close to the SIM32 route. Use it to narrow your search area, then check the exact walk time from the building to your preferred stops.

Openigloo currently shows 194+ buildings that match “good cause” plus proximity to the SIM32 bus corridor (as of 2026-07-07).

No. The filter helps narrow which buildings may have stronger tenant protections, but it does not guarantee your rent will stay the same. Always ask how rent changes are handled for renewals and for the specific unit.

Ask for the unit’s rent history context if available, renewal terms, how management handles notices, and the practical process for repairs and access. Also confirm any building-specific rules (pets, roommates, utilities) in the lease addenda.

Usually they reflect asking rent, not the full cash needed to move. Confirm the total monthly cost and upfront amounts, including deposits, broker or transfer fees (if applicable), and utilities requirements.

Open-data and review signals are a starting point, but you should confirm critical items directly with the building—especially anything related to protections, renewal handling, and lease paperwork—before you commit.
