No. The filter helps you start with buildings that tend to have more predictable increase rules, but the actual amount and timing can still depend on your unit, lease terms, and building documentation. Always verify with the building directly.

What should I ask about lease renewals if a building is flagged for low rent increases?

Ask about renewal timing, what paperwork you’ll receive, how rent adjustments are calculated, and whether there are any unit-specific conditions that affect renewals or increases.

Is there anything I should compare besides the rent increase pattern?

Yes. Compare the full monthly cost (including deposit terms and any recurring fees/utilities you’re responsible for) and make sure you understand the lease length and renewal process for the unit you want.

Where do Openigloo signals come from, and how should I use them?
