What should I confirm before I apply for a near-transit building?

Confirm your route’s closest station, ask about noise (street-facing vs. interior units), and verify building operations that affect move-in and daily life (package handling, elevator reliability, laundry, and access rules).

Do near-transit searches account for costs like broker fees and utilities?

They focus on location and eligibility, not total move-in cost. Always check the full monthly breakdown on the listing and ask about broker fees, security deposit, and typical utility responsibilities.
