Yes. Even when a building ranks well on heat signals, day-to-day comfort can vary by unit and maintenance history. Always ask about how issues are handled, what to expect during seasonal transitions, and how quickly repairs are made.

Ask how heat is controlled in your specific unit, how maintenance requests related to heating are handled, and whether there’s a documented process for resolving repeated complaints. If the building has recent incidents, ask what changed and how they prevent reoccurrence.
