What does “pre-war” mean on this page?

It means the building is built before 1947. Use this to narrow by building age, since layout, insulation, and appliance standards often differ by era.

How does the “B11 bus” part work here?

This page scopes buildings to the Ditmas Park area near the B11 bus route, based on the page’s location filter. Still, confirm the exact walk time to your typical stop and direction before you tour.

Does a higher Openigloo rating mean the building will work for my lease needs?

It helps with screening, but it’s not a substitute for asking questions. Use the rating signals and tenant Q&A to spot patterns, then confirm current terms with the building (repairs, renewals, and move-in requirements).

Are there any limitations with using building signals and ratings?

Yes. Ratings are based on available data for rated buildings, and open-data signals can lag current conditions. Treat them as a starting point and verify details during the application or tour.

What should I ask about before applying for an apartment for rent in a pre-war building?

Ask about utilities and heating/cooling responsibility, maintenance response time, any building-wide rules, and whether the unit has been updated recently (kitchen/bath ventilation, windows, and insulation).

Does this page include income-restricted or subsidized housing programs?

No. This page is not income-restricted housing, not subsidized, not NYCHA, not HPD, and not Section 8, and it is not a housing-lottery / affordable-housing program.
