Is the pre-war condition verified on Openigloo?

Openigloo surfaces research signals and tenant Q&A, but you should still ask the leasing office/super about current issues (heat/hot water, pests, leaks, renovations, and expected repair timelines). Older buildings can have varying maintenance histories.

What should I confirm before applying for a pre-war building?

Ask about heat/hot water setup, laundry access, any ongoing construction affecting noise, and whether the unit has been updated recently. Also confirm all fees and which utilities you pay each month.

Are there any rent regulation protections I should expect from pre-war buildings?

Not automatically. Pre-war describes the building’s age, not the regulatory status of the unit. If you need rent regulation context, ask the building directly or check the unit’s lease terms and status.
