Does being near the B61 bus guarantee an easy commute?

Not automatically. Bus access is a starting point—confirm walk time from the building entrance to your usual stop, then check the frequency and timing that fits your schedule.

What should I verify before applying to a pre-war building?

Verify the rent payment schedule, what’s included (especially heat and hot water), and the maintenance process. Also ask about elevator or common-area upkeep since older buildings can differ widely.

How does Openigloo help me evaluate these buildings beyond photos?

Look at building-level info, review signals from rated buildings, and tenant Q&A. Use those to form targeted questions before you contact the landlord or broker.

Do tenant Q&A entries reflect every unit’s experience?

No. Q&A reflects reported experiences and may vary by unit, lease terms, and time period. Treat it as a lead list of questions, not a guarantee.
