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

It’s a filter meant to surface buildings with comparatively lower counts of open violations in NYC open records. It doesn’t guarantee a building has no issues, so you should still confirm the current condition with management.

How does the “SIM4 bus” filter work here?

This page limits eligible buildings to ones near the SIM4 bus corridor in Gowanus so you can compare options with a similar commute pattern.

Are these violation records a real-time view of the building’s current state?

No. NYC open-record information can lag real-world conditions. Use it as a safety and diligence signal, then ask the building directly about the status of any relevant items.

How should I use the Openigloo rating for these buildings?

Treat the rating as one signal. Cross-check it with tenant Q&A and building details, then verify policies and maintenance practices directly with the landlord or super before signing.

What should I confirm before applying or signing a lease?

Confirm the full monthly cost beyond rent (move-in and ongoing fees, deposits, and utilities if applicable), renewal and notice terms, and the building’s process for maintenance requests.

Is “low-open-violations” the same as “no problems”?

No. It’s a comparative filter. A building can have an improved or manageable situation while still having items on record, so review specifics and ask for current status.
