How does Openigloo help me compare buildings beyond the listing details?

You can use tenant-focused information, including review signals and tenant Q&A, to confirm things like building policies, fee expectations, and practical day-to-day considerations before you sign.

What should I confirm about location even if it matches the B39 filter?

Match it to your actual route: confirm walking distance from the exact address to the B39 stops you’ll use, and ask about safe, well-lit paths during the hours you’ll commute.

What should I ask a doorman/elevator building about when I’m touring?

Ask how entry works for deliveries and guests, elevator wait times during peak hours, and any recent changes to building access or package procedures.

Are there any common fee or cost surprises for renters in high-rises?

Yes. The asking rent is only one part of the monthly cost. Ask for the full breakdown (deposit and move-in fees, any recurring building charges, and whether utilities are separate).
