What does “recommended by renters” mean on Openigloo for Manhattan buildings?

It’s a tenant-signal filter based on Openigloo’s renter feedback and building signals within the Manhattan scope. Use it to start narrowing down options, then verify lease and building rules directly with management.

How many Manhattan buildings match this filter right now?

2,249+ buildings match the recommended-by-renters filter for Manhattan as of 2026-07-07.

How should I use this page when I’m comparing buildings?

Pick a small set of buildings that fit your non-negotiables (commute, budget, building rules), then compare the details and renter notes. Shortlists usually narrow fastest when you prioritize the issues that affect daily life (maintenance, noise, and access to amenities).

Do renter recommendations replace a building tour or direct questions?

No. Recommendations can point you toward patterns, but buildings and management practices can differ by unit type and lease. Use tours and direct questions to confirm the specifics that affect your lease.

What should I confirm about costs before applying or signing?

Confirm the full move-in and monthly picture: deposits, expected broker fees (if any), and utilities responsibility. Don’t assume the asking rent is your total monthly cost.

Are there any renters’-feedback topics that are especially important to ask about?

Yes. If renter notes mention maintenance delays, noise, package delivery, or inconsistent enforcement of building rules, ask management to explain their current process and how it applies to your exact unit.

Which neighborhoods are trending in this scope, and how many buildings are in each?

East Village with 11,857+ buildings; Yorkville with 9,328+ buildings; Lenox Hill with 8,357+ buildings; Hell's Kitchen with 6,943+ buildings; Kips Bay with 4,472+ buildings.
