Are the Openigloo signals enough to decide without calling the landlord?

They’re a helpful shortlist, not a substitute for verification. Treat review signals and open-data indicators as context, then ask the building directly about the specific unit, fees, and move-in requirements.

What if I’m asking about pests, rodents, or bed bugs?

If a building page references records or open-data signals, use them as a starting point and ask management what’s been happening in practice for the specific unit and recently vacated apartments. Data can lag real-world conditions.
