Confirm the exact studio layout, noise exposure, commute details, broker fee, security deposit, move-in costs, and whether the building allows the way you plan to use the space. In studios, the sleeping area and storage setup matter a lot.

Location, building age, amenities, lease terms, broker fees, utilities, and deposit requirements can all change the real monthly cost even when the asking rent looks similar. Always price the full move-in and monthly total, not just the rent.
