How does Openigloo help me avoid surprises before I sign?

You can review building-level signals and read renter questions and answers for practical details. Still, treat asking rent and listings-level notes as a starting point and confirm costs and lease terms with management.

Does “pre-war” tell me what my lease terms or rent increases will be?

Not by itself. Building age can correlate with certain building characteristics, but rent and renewal terms depend on the specific unit and regulatory status. Ask the building directly about renewal and any scheduled rent updates.

What extra costs should I budget for, beyond the asking rent?

The full monthly move-in picture matters. Ask what you’ll pay at signing (deposit and broker fee, if any) and clarify ongoing utilities and any monthly building charges.
