How does Openigloo help me compare pre-war buildings?

You can look at rated-building signals (average building rating) and read renter notes and tenant Q&A where available. Treat these as decision support, then confirm specifics with the building or landlord.

Are pre-war buildings more likely to have issues I should ask about?

They can. Confirm the practical details that matter for your unit: heating performance, elevator status, water pressure, pest-management approach, and what maintenance response looks like when problems come up.

Does “near the B12 bus” guarantee a commute that fits my schedule?

No. It helps you filter by route association, but you should still check the exact stop location, typical walk time, and whether service timing works for your hours.

What costs should I plan for beyond the asking rent?

Plan for your full monthly move-in and ongoing costs. Beyond asking rent, broker fees, deposits, and utilities can affect your budget—confirm the numbers before you apply.
