What should I verify in a pre-war building before signing?

Ask about heating and hot water performance, insulation/airflow (drafts), elevator maintenance, laundry access, and any recent renovations or ongoing repairs. Older buildings may have recurring maintenance needs.

Where does Openigloo’s building information come from?

Openigloo combines your submitted/verified signals such as reviews and tenant Q&A with open-data signals where available, so you can spot patterns before touring.

Are fees beyond rent included when comparing buildings?

You should compare the full monthly and move-in costs. Even if two buildings have different asking rents, broker fees, deposits, and utilities can change the real total cost.

How should I use tenant Q&A to reduce risk?

Look for repeated themes (maintenance response, noise, billing issues, package access), then confirm the current status with staff during your tour. Tenant reports can reflect when someone lived there, and details may change.
