Buildings with low open violation rates near the QM64 bus in Kew Gardens

It’s an Openigloo filter based on NYC open-records indicators for building violations that are still “open.” Use it to reduce risk and triage your search, then verify directly with the building for up-to-date conditions.

Think of it as two separate screens: one for open-violation status and one for location along the QM64 bus route. Shortlist by both, then confirm commute realities like the nearest stop and walking time.

Not always. Open-record signals can lag real-world conditions and may not reflect fixes that happened after the record update. Ask the building team what has changed since the last reported items and whether anything is currently ongoing.

Ask about the status of any recent maintenance items, how inspections are handled, typical response times, and whether there are any current issues affecting units. If the building matches the low-violation flag, still confirm current conditions.

No. It’s a helpful risk-reduction signal, not a guarantee. Building issues can vary by unit and time, so confirm specifics for the exact unit you plan to rent.

Read tenant Q&A and other renter notes on Openigloo, then compare practical items like maintenance responsiveness, move-in requirements, and lease terms. If you have specific concerns, filter down further or ask targeted questions.
