What does “low rent increases” mean on this page?

It’s a building filter that groups properties based on signals indicating relatively restrained rent-change outcomes. You should still confirm the exact increase basis, timeline, and amounts in your lease/renewal paperwork.

How many NYC buildings match this filter right now?

Openigloo shows 7,858+ buildings currently matching the low-rent-increase criteria.

Does this guarantee that my rent will stay low for my whole lease?

No. Even when a building is associated with low rent increases, your contract terms matter. Confirm the renewal language, notice period, and any conditions that can affect rent changes.

What should I ask the landlord or broker before signing?

Ask: (1) the projected renewal process and notice requirements, (2) the legal basis for any rent adjustments, (3) the specific increase history they can point to, and (4) how additional charges (utilities, fees) are handled.

Are there any costs besides the asking rent I should still plan for?

Yes. Even if increases are lower, the full monthly and move-in costs still matter (e.g., security deposit, broker fee where applicable, and any typical building charges or utility responsibilities).

How reliable are the building signals compared with the lease I’ll receive?

Signals can help you shortlist buildings, but they’re not a substitute for your specific contract. Treat Openigloo as a starting point and verify the exact terms in the lease and any renewal documents.
