What does “low open violations” mean on this page?

It’s a building-level signal that prioritizes properties with lower counts of open violations, based on NYC open records used in Openigloo’s filtering. It doesn’t replace asking the building for the current compliance status.

How does the “5-train” part of the filter work here?

The filter is scoped to buildings near the 5 train in the Flatiron area. Use the building’s map and commute details to confirm walk time to the exact station stops you’ll use.

Are open-violation signals updated in real time?

Not always. Open-records data can lag real-world conditions. Treat it as a starting point, then follow up with the landlord and request the latest repair/compliance documentation.

Will this page guarantee there are no problems at the building?

No. “Low” means lower relative counts, not zero issues. You should still confirm current conditions directly and review what tenants say about maintenance and responsiveness.

How should I use the building ratings on Openigloo while searching this filter?

Look at the rated buildings’ overall score as a quick screen, then read the supporting details and tenant Q&A to understand what drove the rating and whether the issues match your priorities.

What should I ask the landlord before applying to a building like this?

Ask about the status of any relevant repairs, expected timelines, and how maintenance requests are handled. Also confirm move-in terms: deposit, fees, lease start/end dates, and any required documentation.
