What does the “low-rent-increases” filter mean on Openigloo?

It’s a building-level filter intended to surface properties where rent increases have tended to be lower compared with other options in the same general market. Always confirm the exact terms for the unit you’d lease.

How does the M55 part of the filter work for Midtown South buildings?

Are these “rent increases” guarantees for my specific apartment?

No. The filter points to building-level patterns, but your unit’s terms can still vary. Ask the landlord/agent how increases are calculated for your lease and renewal.

What should I ask during a tour if I’m prioritizing low rent increases?

Ask about renewal timelines, how and when increases are communicated, whether there are unit-specific constraints, and what costs you should expect at renewal (and at move-in).
