What does the “best-heat” filter mean on Openigloo?

It’s a building-level heat performance filter based on available signals in Openigloo’s dataset. You should still confirm unit-specific heating behavior directly with the building before committing.

How does the “m100-bus” filter work for location?

It narrows the building search to those near the M100 bus route in South Harlem. Treat it as a starting point and verify the commute distance and typical walking time for your schedule.

How many buildings match “best-heat + m100-bus” in South Harlem right now?

There are 23+ matching buildings on Openigloo in this scope as of 2026-07-07.

What should I ask about heat before signing a lease?

Ask about radiator/heat system condition, thermostat or control access, average warm-up time, and how maintenance requests are handled during peak cold periods. Also confirm what’s included in your monthly obligations.

Are the heat ratings a guarantee that my unit will be warm?

No. Filters and ratings are indicators, not unit guarantees. Even within the same building, unit layout, exposure, and maintenance history can change your experience.

How should I use the building ratings on this page?

Look at the 3.2/5 average and the volume behind it (rated buildings) to spot patterns in maintenance and responsiveness, then corroborate with what you observe during your showing.

What to check before choosing a building highly rated for heat near the M100 bus in South Harlem

Confirm the building’s heat details during showings and in writing: ask how thermostat controls work and what to expect during cold snaps.
Check the lease and move-in checklist for the full monthly cost (deposit and any building fees) beyond the asking rent, since heating issues can create hidden costs.
Use the heat-focused filter to narrow options, then verify your unit’s specifics (radiator condition, windows, insulation) with the broker or super.
After you shortlist, read rated-building feedback on maintenance and responsiveness, and compare how often issues were reported versus resolved.
If you have specific schedule constraints, test the “near the M100 bus” assumption (walking time at your likely arrival/departure hours).
