Buildings highly rated for owner responsiveness near High School of Arts and Technology in NYC

It’s an Openigloo filter based on patterns from rated buildings that reflect how quickly and clearly owners or management respond to tenant inquiries. It’s a proxy, so you should still ask direct questions about your situation before signing.

There are 81+ buildings on this page that meet the combined scope and responsiveness criteria as of 2026-07-07.

No. Responsiveness is a building-level signal from rated buildings and tenant-reported context. Individual units and maintenance issues can still vary, so confirm expected repair timelines and the request process with the building.

Ask how requests are submitted, typical response time for non-emergencies, how urgent issues are handled, and whether follow-up happens in writing. If possible, request examples of recent maintenance tickets and the documented outcomes.

Yes. Ask about the full list of move-in and renewal costs (application, deposit, admin, and any transfer/renewal fees) and get the totals and due dates in writing, since filters don’t cover every cost line item.

It’s derived from data associated with rated buildings on Openigloo, including tenant review context. It helps you compare buildings, but it’s not a substitute for confirming policies, availability, and procedures directly with the building.

Shortlist a few buildings, read the owner-responsiveness-related review details, then validate the process with direct questions during outreach and showings. Focus on how they handle maintenance requests, communication, and documentation for the lease you’re considering.
