Do cleanliness ratings guarantee there won’t be issues during my lease?

What should I ask before signing, given the near-transit focus?

Ask about noise complaints, hours when deliveries or maintenance are most active, and how the building manages shared spaces. If noise matters, request a unit viewing away from the noisiest street or corridor where possible.

What to check before choosing a building highly rated for cleanliness near transit in Washington Heights

Use the cleanliness filter as a starting point, then confirm what “clean” means for you (trash handling, pest prevention, common-area upkeep) during tours.
Because this is near-transit, ask about noise and building soundproofing on your visit, especially during rush hours.
Compare what’s currently available on Openigloo and check current rent, fees, and move-in timelines for each building.
Verify lease terms directly with the landlord or super: renewal language, any building-specific rules, and when cleaning/maintenance expectations are enforced.
Look for differences by building age and layout (even with strong cleanliness ratings), and request photos or recent maintenance documentation if anything is unclear.
