No. It helps narrow to buildings under the good-cause tenant-protection category, but individual lease terms, timing, and the building’s specific process still matter. Always verify renewal and rent-change details in writing.

Ask about renewal process and timelines, current rent and how increases are handled, maintenance response expectations, and any fees tied to renewals or early move-outs. Bring your questions to management before you pay deposits.

Openigloo may include open-data signals and tenant Q&A on building pages, but conditions in real life can change. For any concern, confirm directly with the building and request current documentation during your search.

No. Good-cause is about tenant-protection rules, not income eligibility. It is not the same as income-restricted housing, subsidized housing, NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or a housing-lottery program.

Use them to look for patterns (responsiveness, maintenance issues, notice practices, and how management communicates). Then treat them as leads: verify the specifics you care about directly with the leasing office before signing.
