How should I use the building list before touring?

Start by sorting and screening for your non-negotiables (commute distance, building condition signals, and any must-have amenities). Then confirm specifics with the building—photos, maintenance history, and current availability can vary by unit.

Do pre-war buildings have extra things to verify?

Yes. Ask about heat/hot water reliability, plumbing conditions, pest prevention practices, and any recent major repairs. If the building has shared infrastructure issues, they can show up differently by unit.

Is being near the 6 train the same as being close to my exact stop?

Not always. “Near the 6 train” is a filter, but station access depends on which entrance is closest and how the block connects to your route. Confirm walking time at your typical travel hours.

Where does Openigloo’s information come from?

Openigloo aggregates building-level details and renter Q&A, and may include open-data signals where available. Treat it as a screening tool and still verify details with the building for your specific unit.
