Does “pre-war” tell me everything I need to know about condition or systems?

No. “Pre-war” is about construction era, not current maintenance. Confirm heating, hot water, elevator operation (if applicable), and any recent updates with the building directly.

How should I use Openigloo ratings and Q&A for these buildings?

Use them as a shortcut to questions that renters care about. Then verify specifics (move-in costs, rules, and what’s included) with management before applying or paying deposits.

Are there common lease or move-in costs I should ask about even if the building looks good online?

Yes. Ask what you pay upfront (application/holding fees, deposits) and what ongoing costs include (utilities, laundry access, and any recurring building fees). The total monthly cost matters, not just the asking figure.

Are the building signals and Q&A enough to make a decision by themselves?

Not usually. Treat them as starting points. You’ll still want a direct call or email to the building for the unit you’re considering—especially for availability, restrictions, and timing.
