What does the 5-train filter mean on this Crown Heights buildings page?

It narrows results to buildings located near the 5 train, so you’re searching by transit access rather than the whole neighborhood at once.

What does “best-heat” mean, and how should I use it?

“Best-heat” is a heat-performance signal Openigloo uses to help you prioritize buildings. Treat it as a starting point, then verify the details for the exact unit with management or the super.

Is “best-heat” the same as having heat included in rent?

No. Heat-rating signals and heat coverage are separate topics. You should confirm how heating costs and billing work for your specific unit and lease.

How can I confirm heat will work for my specific unit before signing?

Ask for specifics on your unit’s heating setup and control (thermostat/radiator behavior, response times, and how maintenance requests are handled). Also confirm whether there are any operational rules that could limit heating in your lease period.

Does Openigloo guarantee that every unit will feel the same?

No. Even within the same building, unit layouts and systems can differ. Use the heat signal plus renter notes, then ask targeted questions about the exact unit you plan to rent.

How does Openigloo use reviews and signals to compare buildings?

You’ll see building-level ratings from rated buildings and additional building pages that summarize available information. Use them to compare patterns, not to replace direct confirmation with the building.
