What does “pre-war” mean on this page?

Pre-war means the building was constructed before 1947. It’s a filter on the building’s construction date, not an indicator of how renovated a unit is today.

What does “near the M86-SBS bus” mean for eligible buildings?

Buildings included here match the route proximity requirement used for the M86-SBS corridor. Still, check your exact walking time from the building entrance to your usual stop.

How many buildings match these filters right now?

3,187+ buildings match the pre-war + M86-SBS bus filters as of 2026-07-07.

What should I verify before signing a lease in a pre-war building?

Confirm heating and hot water setup and who is responsible for repairs. Also verify included utilities, any known building or unit-specific issues, and what’s been updated recently.

Does Openigloo guarantee unit condition or service quality?

No. Openigloo signals and Q&A help you screen buildings, but you should still inspect the unit, ask about maintenance workflows, and confirm current terms directly with the building.

Are open-data signals reliable for older buildings?

They’re helpful context, but they can lag real-world conditions. Treat them as leads and ask management for the latest status on repairs, compliance, and any ongoing work.

What costs should I budget for beyond the monthly asking rent?

Plan for the full cost: broker fee (if applicable), security deposit, and any recurring charges for utilities or building services. Ask for a written breakdown before you commit.
