No. The building count reflects eligible buildings in the scope, not guaranteed availability of a rent-stabilized unit at this moment. Check each building’s current advertised apartments and ask about availability for the dates you need.

Ask how renewal options work for your specific lease, what rent increase process applies to the unit you’re considering, and whether any paperwork is required at renewal (such as income/occupancy documentation).

Not always. Even with rent-stabilized apartments, there can be deposits, application/admin fees, and potential broker fees depending on the arrangement. Budget for the full monthly cost and one-time move-in costs, not only the base asking rent.

Openigloo compiles building-level signals and resident-informed context shown on building pages, plus tenant Q&A. It helps you screen efficiently, but you should still verify current rules, unit status, and lease details with the building.
