Does having an elevator guarantee full accessibility for move-in and daily use?

No. Even with an elevator, policies and real-world reliability can vary. Confirm elevator access hours, whether it’s available for moving, and any restrictions or service schedules with the building.

What should I ask the building about the elevator before applying?

Ask about elevator reliability/maintenance, any downtime during renovations, whether the elevator can handle your moving needs, and how accessibility requests are handled. Also confirm any required procedures for move-in.

Are Openigloo scores and “rated buildings” a substitute for touring?

No. Ratings are a starting point, not a guarantee. Use them to narrow options, then tour or request a walkthrough when possible and verify elevator operation and building policies in person.

Do I need to budget for more than just the asking rent?

Yes. Even when a building matches your elevator and transit needs, the full monthly and move-in cost can include deposits and fees, plus utility responsibilities. Review the details on each building page before applying.
