What does “affordable” mean on this page?

It means the building’s median asking rent is below the neighborhood median on Openigloo’s market-relative methodology. It is not income-restricted or subsidized housing.

Is this income-restricted, subsidized, or housing-lottery housing?

No. The affordable filter on Openigloo is market-relative based on asking rents. It is not NYCHA, HPD, Section 8, or a housing-lottery / affordable-housing program.

How is the “new-school-college” filter used?

It narrows the search to areas aligned with The New School and nearby college commute patterns. The goal is to surface buildings that fit the location need, then you confirm availability and lease terms.

Do the building scores and tenant Q&A guarantee a particular unit will be the same?

No. Scores and Q&A reflect building-level patterns and what tenants reported over time; unit quality, floor level, and lease terms can differ.

What fees or costs should I plan for beyond the asking rent?

Even when a building is labeled market-relative affordable, you should still budget for the full monthly cost. Confirm broker fee (if any), deposit amounts, and required utilities when you reach out.

What should I ask the landlord or management before signing?

Ask for the exact rent for the specific unit, included vs. separate utilities, move-in dates, lease length/renewal terms, and any restrictions on pets, roommates, or guarantors.

Are the building records on Openigloo always up to date?

They aim to reflect current data, but availability and building practices can change. Always verify pricing, availability, and conditions directly with management before you sign.
