What does “pre-war” mean on this page?

It refers to buildings built before 1947. You’re filtering for building age so you can compare older-stock experiences alongside transit access near the Q55.

How does “near the Q55 bus” work?

The scope is based on proximity to the Q55 bus route. Since “near” varies by stop and walking pace, confirm the exact walking time from the building to your usual Q55 boarding point.

How many buildings are available in this filter?

There are 8,038+ buildings in scope right now. Counts reflect what Openigloo can match to the pre-war + Q55 proximity filters at the time of this snapshot.

What should I check specifically for pre-war buildings?

Ask about heating and hot-water reliability, window condition/drafts, and any building practices that affect day-to-day comfort (noise insulation, elevator reliability, and maintenance turnaround).

Does Openigloo guarantee building conditions or management quality?

No. Reviews and tenant Q&A help you spot patterns, but conditions can change. Use the signals as a shortlist, then verify details directly with the building and broker.

What fees or costs should I confirm before applying?

Confirm the full move-in math tied to the specific apartment: security deposit, broker fee (if applicable), any building fees, and which utilities are included, so you can compare the true monthly total.
