  • Before applying, verify what “near the B38” means for your commute: walk time, nearest stop, and whether service frequency matches your schedule.
  • Confirm lease terms and any building-specific policies (renewals, move-in process, and required documents) since pre-war buildings can vary by ownership and management.
  • If the building has shared spaces or older systems, ask about maintenance history and recent upgrades, and keep the answers in writing.
