What to check before for buildings highly rated for heat near the M5 bus in Washington Heights

  • Use “best-heat” plus the m5-bus filter to narrow to Washington Heights buildings where heat performance is a highlighted factor in the Openigloo data.
  • Check the unit’s current heating setup (steam vs. forced air, radiator condition, thermostat access) and ask how heat is handled during shoulder seasons.
  • Confirm what’s included and how utilities are charged for the specific apartment; “good heat” in the building doesn’t always mean your monthly cost is the same.
  • Look for any recent maintenance history or recurring issues mentioned in tenant Q&A, especially around thermostat behavior and radiator hot-water flow.
  • Before applying, verify lease start date, security deposit terms, and any move-in requirements, since building heat and maintenance responses can vary by contract terms.
