What to check before choosing a pre-war building near the B9 bus in Kensington

  • Confirm the building’s pre-war status and current condition in person (or via a walkthrough): elevators, heating, water pressure, mold/moisture signs, and pest history.
  • Use the rated-building signal (3.3/5 across 28 rated buildings) as a starting point, then read recent reviews for patterns that match your priorities.
  • Expect variability by apartment even within the same building: ask about window condition, insulation, appliances, and how repairs are scheduled.
  • Check lease terms and move-in costs beyond rent, including deposit and any broker-related fees; make sure the total monthly budget works for you.
  • If you’re commuting via the B9 route, confirm the walk time to your closest stop at different times of day. B9 access can affect day-to-day convenience.
