What to check before choosing a pre-war building near the Q17 bus in Kew Gardens Hills

  • Confirm what “pre-war” means for your target building (built before 1947) and ask about recent systems updates like heating, hot water, and electrical capacity.
  • Check the unit’s commute reality: a “near Q17 bus” location can still involve different walk times depending on cross streets and time of day.
  • Before signing, verify the full monthly cost: security deposit, any broker fee, utility setup, and whether any building add-ons (parking/storage) are separate.
  • Use apartment availability signals to avoid dead ends—then confirm lease terms and renewal approach with the landlord or management office.
  • If a building shows it has Q&A or reviews, use them to build a checklist for your tour (soundproofing, pests policy, response times, and how maintenance requests are handled).
