How does Openigloo help me compare 4,647+ buildings?

You can sort and narrow by your filters, then use review signals from rated buildings and renter Q&A to spot recurring maintenance, management, and livability issues before you tour.

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

Ask about condition and maintenance history (plumbing/electrical/elevators), heating details, noise expectations, and any building rules that affect move-in or daily routines.

Are the renter Q&A answers official building policies?

They’re renter-reported experiences and questions. Treat them as leads to ask the building directly for policy confirmation, especially for fees, timelines, and approvals.

Do I need to factor in more than the monthly rent?

Yes. Even if you find a rent that fits, confirm the full move-in and monthly cost picture (security deposit, any additional fees, and utility responsibility) before you apply.
