What to check before choosing a building near schools in Kensington

  • Use the near-schools filter to prioritize buildings by proximity, then check unit availability on Openigloo before you reach out.
  • Look for rated buildings (and the rating sample size when shown) to get a baseline sense of how others experienced the building.
  • Before signing, confirm the full move-in cost: deposit, any required fees, and what’s included vs. billed separately.
  • Ask about lease terms and renewal expectations, especially if your school schedule depends on timing.
  • If you have accessibility needs or specific transit plans, confirm routes and building logistics during your tour and scheduling calls.
