What does “low open violations” mean on this page?

It means the building is flagged in Openigloo’s data as having a low number of open violations. Conditions can change, so confirm the latest status with the building directly.

How does the “near the R train” filter work?

This page is scoped to Downtown Brooklyn buildings positioned near the R train in the search area. Use the map and directions on each building page to check walking time and the nearest station entrance.

Do low open violations guarantee the building is in good condition?

No. Low open violations reflect the snapshot in public/open-data indicators. You should still inspect the unit, review maintenance practices, and ask management about current repairs.

What should I check before applying to a building from this list?

Confirm unit availability, move-in costs (deposit, broker fee if any, and utilities), lease terms, and building requirements for approval. If anything is unclear, ask before you pay fees.

Is the violation data current as of today?

The snapshot is as of 2026-07-07, and open-violation status may update over time. Treat it as a screening signal, then verify with the building for the most recent situation.

How do reviews and ratings relate to this filter?

The filter targets open-violation status and R-train proximity. Separately, Openigloo provides building ratings from rated buildings. Use both, but don’t assume that filter match replaces due diligence.

Which neighborhoods are trending in this scope right now?

Bushwick with 12,589+ buildings; Stuyvesant Heights with 7,834+ buildings; Flatbush with 5,564+ buildings; Park Slope with 7,025+ buildings; Clinton Hill with 4,040+ buildings.

What to check before for buildings with low open violation rates near the R train in Downtown Brooklyn

Expect a tighter shortlist: each building here is filtered for low open violation rates and proximity to the R train corridor.
Use the building page to cross-check the exact unit availability with “with available apartments,” building policies, and any updates since the snapshot.
Before signing, confirm how repairs are handled and ask for the most recent maintenance and inspection history, even if open violations are currently low.
Ask what documents are required for approval and whether there are move-in costs beyond rent (security deposit, broker fees if applicable, and utility responsibilities).
If you’re comparing multiple buildings, match unit details (size, floor, exposure) and not just the building score or filter match.
