What does “low open violations” mean on Openigloo?

It’s a filter based on open violation signals from NYC open records. The goal is to help you shortlist buildings with fewer open items, but you should still ask the building directly about the latest status and any recent fixes.

How does the “M9 bus” filter work for Kips Bay buildings?

It narrows the list to buildings mapped near the M9 bus corridor area in this Kips Bay scope. Location can still vary by block, so confirm the exact address relative to your commute.

Is a low open-violation rate the same as “no issues” or “no bugs/rodents”?

No. Open-records signals can lag real-world conditions. Treat the filter as a starting point, and ask the building about recent reports, remediation steps, and ongoing prevention.

How should I use ratings on this page?

Use the average building rating and the context in tenant Q&A and reviews to understand what renters experience day to day. Ratings reflect rated buildings and can’t replace verifying current conditions for your specific unit.

What should I ask before applying for an apartment in one of these buildings?

Ask for the most current violation/inspection summary, the current status of any open items, utilities responsibility, move-in fees, lease start timing, and documentation requirements for application approval.

Do I need to verify anything even if a building matches both filters?

Yes. The filters narrow the candidate set, but lease terms, fees, and rules can differ unit-by-unit. Confirm the exact terms for your unit (rent, renewals, utilities, deposits, and any policies).
