What to check before for buildings highly rated for heat in East Harlem

  • Confirm what “heat” means in writing: how the building controls temperature, typical thermostat settings, and who to contact when heat is delayed.
  • Check your unit’s specifics (radiator condition, exposure/wind exposure, insulation notes) since building performance can differ by apartment.
  • Ask about how heating issues are handled during the season: response times, maintenance escalation, and any documented past repairs.
  • Compare the asking rent to your full monthly move-in cost (deposit, broker fee if applicable, utilities) so “better heat” fits your budget.
  • Use the building’s Openigloo page to review recent notes, then request the landlord’s current maintenance and heating procedures.
