How can Openigloo help me vet a building before I apply?

Are reviews and ratings a guarantee of how my unit will be?

No. Reviews reflect experiences, but apartments within the same building can differ. Treat them as signals, then verify specifics (repairs history, noise patterns, included utilities) with management for the exact unit.

What should I confirm before signing a lease in a pre-war building?

Confirm the unit condition (HVAC/heating behavior, hot water, plumbing), any known building-wide constraints, and your lease terms (renewal/termination language and what fees apply). Pre-war stock can vary widely by building.
