Do open-data signals replace talking to the building or broker?

No. Openigloo helps you shortlist faster, but you should still confirm unit-specific details (availability, fees, utilities, and lease terms) directly with the broker or building management.

What lease details should I confirm before applying?

Confirm the lease start date, rent and any added fees, deposit requirements, renewal/termination terms, and whether there are any restrictions tied to your specific unit.

How should I use building notes or Q&A if I’m concerned about the building’s condition?

Treat notes as leads. If something is mentioned (repairs, pests, noise, heating/hot water, or access issues), ask for the current status and what maintenance records or recent work are available.
